lol that's as high as you are going to want to go. It will be MUCH quicker on the take off. Consider some sticker tires if you don't already have them.

Are you running an automatic? If so, consider a tranny kit also....

4.10's auto or manual. Well...Personally, I'd go with 4.30's for a 5-speed.

Shift kits are a must in autos. Not as fun and not worth running with anything less. Of course, you could always do a little better and run a manual valve body.

If you want 4th gear to top out at 100mph...
