replacing stock rear end gears....suggestions?
I am going to take my car to my dads friends machine shop to have them switch the rear end gears..I havent bought the gears yet because I wasnt sure what set to go with....some people suggest 4:10's but I think I won't like them because I do drive the car on a regular basis, even though I take it to the dragway several times a year....I was thinking 3:73's, but didn't know if anyone suggested anything different...

Personally I would go with 3.73's max...rule of thumb I use is for a 5 speed car...3.55 to 3.73 for street and occasional strip use....3.73 to 4.10 for an auto car.

If you check the sticker on the door you will find one of these codes
Rear Axle Codes
BG — 3.31 — non-limited slip, base vehicle with manual or automatic
CD — 3.55 — limited slip, GT with manual transmission
CG — 3.31 — limited slip, GT with automatic transmission
Hope this helps.....
