Default little extras

hi to all,
i'm new to the forum and i just want to say hi and while i'm here i thought i would ask a few questions.

first of all like my sig says i have a 1984 camaro with 305v8.
i have an rv cam, big valve heads, aftermarket intake, and carter performance carb.

the first question i have is i'm THINKING about putting headers and true dual, straight pipe with an H-pipe, exhaust on the car and want to know what anythings of this and possibly what kind/ size of headers would work the best.

next question.. i'v searched i think is everywhere and cant get a clear answer on the gear ratio in my car short of pulling the diff plate off. not really wanting to do that. i have the auto matic with an overdrive. does anyone know what ratio my car came with. as far as i know my car will do around 130mph in drive. i want to lower the ratio, but still do that maybe in overdrive. any suggestions on what brand of gears and what ratio to go will be appreciated.

that should be all for now unless anyone has anything to through in to get a little more power out of my mouse. its a great car and i love to drive it.

What RPM are you turning at 130 in drive? Which trans do you have?, is it a 200R4?

your rear end is most likely a 2.56 or 2.76. thats what most of the automatics had. and as for true duals, it is a little pricey to have them made for you, but you cant buy a kit for true duals, you have to have it custom made. i currently and getting true duals put on march 22nd, if i install the headers myslef, which i am, then it cost me lees then 1 grand.
