ive completed the swap except for my backup lights. my problem is this, i have 3.73 gears. it seems i cant launch the car anymore. it just smokes. i broke my factory slap bars 2 yrs ago, but was still able to launch with the srod. im running 195/60/14 and im positive im going to have to go with a larger tire. but does somebody have any low budget suggestions ie.. no lakewoods if i can help it?
also it seems the car is much slower through the quarter mile. has anybody else noticed this?maybe i should try launching in 2nd?
