I have 3.73 gears and that's about as fast as I want to spin the engine on the freeway.

I think 4.10s would be too "buzzy" for me but, hey, everyone has different likes and dislikes.

On the other hand, a good aftermarket shifter is a really good mod.

Use the guy in Bako that chris93266 and gmpower recommended...

He is about 1/2 the cost of most shops and can do anything.

I met Tad at the dyno at my shop a while back, I didnt care for him at all and he overcharged the guys out the *** for doing basic fuel/timing changes...


Be careful using these random guys etc... Have the same guy that tuned orangefun and chris's car tune it. PM me for his #. He has a shop/dynojet out at the road race track in Buttonwillow Raceway.
