would 4.10 greatly effect maxing out on a highway?
from 3.55's all the way to 4.10's then YES

Well you still need to do suspension and get good tires. Power does nothing if it not on the ground. After suspension and dr's your in the 12's no problem. What did u originally write to make everyone on the first page say 14's?

I have no clue why they where thinking 14s because i had the same thing as i do nowon the first post. The only reason why i wrote thiswas because I found a car for 1500 with all of those parts and the car has a soild body. So now i am wondering what is wrong with the car. It only has 3,000 on the rebuilt and it seems like he is selling it for less then what it is worth. So i am going to have to check the car out tomarow to see what is wrong with it.

hes probably taking the motor

make sure its not being sold as a "roller"

i wouldnt be surprised if the car ran a 14 either.

if it has no suspension it wont be goin anywhere too fast... a drag car is not a good highway car. 4.10/3.73 is the max i would go with an auto/std

and no way your touras hit a 15.8 (got a slip??) unless its an SHO with a 5 speed (which is rare)

Everything the car has goes with it. So what are the main suspension parts i will need to hook good?
