Great place to invest the next phase of time, effort, and money. I haven't seen you here in a while. (mabey just me) While you are in there, make it possi. Rebuilding the stocker works well. $100.00 and a call to Pyle Bros Perf Differentials in Houston, TX. will do the job. Mine worked flawless for about 7 years of total abuse of street and track duty. The gears, big choice, I had both, I prefer the 4.30s that I have now. With more gear you can run a taller tire, which gives a better 60ft, and this yeilds lower ET's. I currently use a 26" tire with the 4.30s It crosses in fourth at 6000. Perfect untill I choose to make the next step, and when I do, I will adjust by going with a 28" tire. I do a lot of daily driving, pull the boat and bike trailers, I think I get 20 or better MPG. Its crazy, But just remember your will be more of a track car, so you can deal with a little more than 3.55s or 3.73s. Good luck either way.
