Welcome to pt.net What is your current gear final drive ratio ? Most of us will swap gears and upgrade the differentail while we're in there with an Eaton or Detroit LSD (posi)

Welcome.

And yes the Eaton LSD is a very popular upgrade for your rear end. And yes, Brian@JPA has some goodies to make you fast
