I want to put new gears in the rearend to get alot more out of it but i use it as a daily driver too. Its got overdrive...........i was thinking 373's or should i go higher?

 

Being that you have overdrive, you can probably go all the way to 4:11. The car will be a liitle buzzy on the highway, but that is the price u got to pay. Make sure you get a limited slip diff to go with the gears otherwise all the extra torque will go up in smoke.

 

yes go with the 411's thats what i have on my iroc, and it made a big difference on acceleration.

 

Thanks i think i will go with the 4 11's but how much does a limited slip cost and where is a good place to find one?

 

I think it will be tough to find either one at a salvage yard. As most cars don't come with 4.11s and I really don't trust a used limited slip. U can go online to a performance parts store such as Jegs http://www.jegs.com/ or Summit http://www.summitracing.com/ They have just about all you need.

Also, setting up rear end gears is a critical process and requires specialized tools. Find a gooe rear end shop to do the work.

 

thanks for the help guys.......i have changed rear end gears many times in my race car, im kinda low on money right now and i have 342's laying around off of my race car so im gunna put them in for now untill the winter when i do my 350 motor swap and stuff

thanks
