Default mod info

got some questions on some prospective mods. and i was hoping now that things are cleared up maybe i'll get real answers.
first...would 42.5 #injectors benefit the motor at all..as well as high flow fuel rails. and a adjustable fuel pressure regulator. is there any gain in an electronic water pump.
what is the best posi unit from auburn? the pro series, or the high performance series. what would most of you do for a rearend? i know i want 4.10s but not sure if i want locker or posi. also, what suspension upgrades are beneficial...i have kyb adjustable shocks front and back, and those stupid lowering shackles, but i want a stiffer ride with less mush and more stiffness in turns etc. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

for suspension i would go with the hotckis kit with springs and leafs in the rear and sway bars on saturday maybe you can go for a ride and i'll show you a stiff ride that handles. also i'm interested in larger injectors and fuel rails where would i get such things and whats the largest injector to run withouht a changing anything like using a low impedence box

</font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> what would most of you do for a rearend? i know i want 4.10s </font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">4:10s in in my olans because of the stall I will be getting. If this is a street racer, 4:10s would be fine. Shouldn't increase 70mph rpms but by 2 hundred maybe if you already have 3:73's, 400rpm if you have 3:42's

</font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> those stupid lowering shackles, but i want a stiffer ride with less mush and more stiffness in turns etc. </font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">What is stupid about them? You want a stiffer ride? Drop the truck 4/6 and leave the bump stops in. That will stiffen the ride. Seriously, do a 3/4 dro[ and get front and rear sway bars. But, that will add weight which is not good for the weight when drag racing. Now there is always a custom 4 link, but that is $$$.
