You should really feel the diffrence off the line!! [img]graemlins/burnout.gif[/img]

I'm thinking about getting 3.42s in my 3.4 also, but I was wondering if they hurt topend like the 3.73s and 4.10s?Comment

Is there anyway to really screw up your car if you add in 3.42s?\'98 z28<br /> <a href=\"http://photobucket.com/albums/a245/GreatSave9/?start=all\" target=\"_blank\">http://photobucket.com/albums/a245/GreatSave9/?start=all</a>Comment

Well with 220hp you should be flying!!! [img]graemlins/rofl.gif[/img]
Haha j/k, anyways 3.42's will be nice but they will not help your top end. You'll need better flowing heads and a better cam for that. I'd say for a stock heads/cam 3.4L, 3.42's are the perfect gear.---<br />-\'95 3.4L M5 CamaroComment

yeah, lower gears help out a lot w/off the line acceleration, but fudge up your top speed/rpm ratio. p.s. if you had a 3rd gen V6 car, you'd already have them 3.42s ;)

You can screw your car if you install them wrong...personally i dont think there is much improvement from original 3.23's if you go 3.42's. I dont think its worth the money for that small of jump.

i got 3.73's in my car....things a beast [img]smile.gif[/img] . I ran a 15.8 @85.XX with them, a cold air, underdrive pullies, and a flowmaster muffler. :eek: And my top end seems great, just egt them and deal with whatever small topend loss you get later on.1979 Z28 Camaro, 1 of 10,000 Factory 4 speeds. <br />1994 Camaro Sport Coupe, M5<br />Best ET: 15.31@91.5 (25 hp NOS)Comment

Nah it would be a big improvement for me from 3.08s to 3.42s! [img]smile.gif[/img]\'98 z28<br /> <a href=\"http://photobucket.com/albums/a245/GreatSave9/?start=all\" target=\"_blank\">http://photobucket.com/albums/a245/GreatSave9/?start=all</a>Comment

ok, I think I will go with the 3.42s,lsd, and some new tires to catch some traction.Now if only I could find what I wanted for a reasonable price...Comment
