  • new gears installed!!!

    I just got my 3.42 gears and posi unit installed friday. It only cost me 400 because my mechanic had some extra ones out of a SS just laying around taking up room. yes that is 400 installed and everything! all i gotta say is WOW, these things are great, takes off extremely better than it used to, and as far as gas mileage goes, all weekend i have been getting 28 miles to the gallon, and that is taking into account the speedo off by10% and odometer slightly off.

        yea 400 but considering they came out of a SS with only 800 miles on it i would say it was pretty good,

                      It would either be a Zexel or an Auburn out of an SS. I got my Eaton LSD installed for $150 but paid $200 for the diff with only 6K miles on it.. I already had 3.42 gears
