trans dad went to 4:10s and a bit under 2k compared to your 2k dropped the mph by 10. looking at those 2 numbers 80 should be no more than 2250 for 80. that should be more than 80 with 4:10s still.

you should probably beef up the weakpoints before playing or else you might end up in a bad situation. like without the car until you get the replacement parts in and install.

They'll bust either way

That's what I was thinking.....only a small amount of time left for that diff then

I want to keep my gas MPG as much as I can, all I want for my car is to be runnin' 12s @ over 110 MPH on hot days. I can touch that stuff now, after an LS6 intake and a Frost tune, I think I'd be there.

If I'm still not there, then 4.10s FTW! Glad to see they are quiet, OP! I can believe 1900 RPM at 70, it's only 1500 right now with the 3.42s, in 6th.

**shady milkman** · 10-02-2009, 04:18 AM

gears will stay pretty quiet as long as proper install and break in...but unfortunately with our rears..getting tweaked which almost all are..will lead to noisier gears..

that is why in really strong rears..properly installed gears will not whine ..they housing doesnt get tweaked and cause abnormal tooth contact like in our 10 bolts
