you wont lose much MPG if you keep your foot out of it..... I have 4.10s cams and a blower and I still get 20+MPG highway and around 18 city (skip shifting)


I would go with the gears.... as for the price thats around what i paid but then a again my gears now have 35k and over 350 passes at the drag strip and they have no signs of wear

my buddy went cheap a few times on going with halfass installers and he is on his 3rd gears set because he keeps breaking the ring gear.. ( I am making more power as well)
