If you don't have overdrive, highway driving won't be much fun...

I went from 3.55 to 3.70 and noticed a big difference in acceleration. can't imagine what it the difference would be like from 3.08's to 4.11's. wow!

Did you try Bairs? If not them, then try this link:http://www.ikerds.com/merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=CP&Product_Code=300-078

I think 3.90 is the lowest ratio offered for that housing.

Vette(s): 1979 Black on Black, heavily modified. 1975 Orange, bone stock (for now).
I bought my 2,73 gears from Ikerd's. Personally I would never want any car with 4.11 rear and 1:1 final gear on the tranny... What's the point getting from 0-60 in 5 secs if your top speed is 100mph? I went for more power (540hp/552tq) and lower gear, performance wise I'm very satisfied, I get 0-60mph in 4 secs and top speed is over 180mph. |cheers|
