Gears Hi everyone. This is my first post on this message board, but I have really enjoyed reading and learning from you guys. I have a question about gears. I have an '02 SS. Not too many mods...this week I will be putting on LM system, Granatelli MAFS, Air lid w/ K&N. It is a six speed w/ factory hurst and Lou's short stick. I don't really ever drag much at the strip, although I may soon, but even then--just every now and again. Would it be beneficial for me to replace my gears? If so, what do you recommend.
Thanks.
Jeff

Re: Gears Youll probably be happy with your stock gears. They are strong, quiet, and covered under warranty. I drive my car very hard, and race at the track weekly. I love my 3.73s, I feel they are a very good performance value. In your situation , I would wait and see if your performance needs increase. Just my .02

Re: Gears I'm planning on putting 4.10s in my 6 speed when I have the opportunity (and find a shop that can do it right).
I have never swapped gears before, but the 4.10s sound like they would be a blast on the street, and for a little track time every now and again...
It looks like the rear end cover girdle is a good idea for added strength - I plan on getting it.

Re: Gears Save your pennies and get a moser 12 bolt w/4.10s! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
Do it right the first time. Why not get a BULLET PROOF rear setup? I will get one before I start doing big power mods.
