RE: 4.10s going in tomorrow
Was told to take it easy for a while so I haven't romped on it yet but I did goose it a few times on the highway coming in to work this morning and she's definitely got more OOMPH in all gears.
On the 3.55s in 4th she was a little sluggish when I stepped on it at 60 so if I needed to make a fast pass I'd drop into 3rd. Now from 60 she jumps right up to 75 - 80 without the downshift.
I like 'em

It's not half way to a supercharger, but it does give the car that unnatural feeling when it accelerates like a supercharger.

That's what I needed to hear.
Most of the posts regarding 4.10s make it sound like I'm gonna be 1/2 way to an s/c in terms of acceleration. Guess I succumbed to the hyperbole.
It's been raining here A LOT the past couple weeks and I occasionally spin getting started on mild inclines which is no big deal...but I don't really want to do it all the time, if you know what I mean.
Thanks.

RE: 4.10s going in tomorrow
I had a local FRPP shop do the work. $795 for parts (FRPP gears) and labor which included shimming the clutch packs. I've seen prices as low as mid-$500s in other posts but this shop is close to my house and they do good work.
