Heads would be nice but i dont want to put much more money in this setup. this was jsut done on the cheaplol but the right gears should really wake it up. i have a fully optioned 9 inch housing and 35 spline axles i baught off another member. im just debating on a 4:11 with 26 inch tall tire or 456s with 28 inch tall tire. i must do my research.

Well Vengeance recommends 4:10 gears. I have a friend with a T-Rex cam & has 4:30 gears. But hes thinking about going with 456 gears.

4.30s and a 28" tall tire with a TRex would run hard, 4.56s would make it even better with the taller tire. With a 26" and a big cam I'd run 4.10s though, unless its a serious track car.

Trex does sound sick I saw a video last night on youtube where it was a t rex ta m6 vs a camaro ms3 stalled auto looks like they went from a 35 or 40 roll ,but the ms3car spanked the t rex like no tomm. I know that's one run and maybe the ta needed a driver mod but I thought racing at that speed that car would have won easy ill see if I can find it and post it

Its not just about cam size, its about the whole combo, the tune, the driver, whether it was installed correctly, etc.
