You could check with TNC, I think Jeff does gears, I just don't have time to do the mechanical stuff anymore with the tuning going on.

Reputable shops w/ personal experience... I'm thinking of switching my gears. Anybody here know any shop can do it w/ reasonable price and tune my car for the gear I'm switching to and well tune the rest of the car? I might go ahead tune the car for to have it run in optimum performance, so if you know someone or somebody's shop let me know. Of course this have to be in Little Rock area.

No dyno for me. I spent my dyno money on my book for a class I'm taking this semester. $125 for a damn book... Yes, I plan on putting the gears before the race day in march. I've got plans to get my 12s. About Dale's auto... Is it speed shop?

Verdad Gallardo it's like a repair shop but they specialize in drag cars and things with big engines, but yea, they do all around speed stuff, internal engine, and i think they build engines out there too.
I have a set of factory GM 3.42 gears for sale $50 and i have a buddy that installs them and tunes with HP tuners. You will need to get a with him and get the cost of the 2000 model USB cable and he will hook you up with all of it. If interested PM me and i'll get you in contact with him.
He is located in prescott and im in texarkana.

You sure you only want to go 3:42 on your gear. i sure am happy with 3:89 gear in my a4, running a 26" drag radial. Just don't take it out of overdrive til you have to. I think you would be much more pleased with at least the 3:73's. See ya soon
