flaming river is probably your best bet for price and guarentee. I have the 18:1...its no PS but its much easier than just cutting the belt on a 1995 dodge neon.

20:1 would be easier to turn because you would have to actually move the wheel further

more distance - less effort

On the net arts parts is definitly your best bet. You can get the complete kit standard ratio for 350 and the quick rack for 375. Comes with everything you need to do the swap. Hes over on the coral.net forums under with screen name artsparts.
