not bad at all, it will be a new car, if your 3.08's still...it will feel like another 100 hp

now get some tires and take advantage of it

dude if you live in louisiana, ill get you good prices, drop your rear end off or bring the car down here, itll only take him a day or 2. alot of places wanted $700+ to rebuild my t-5 i mean nothigns wrong with either, just oging to do it when i rebuild the motor to totally restore the car. only thing wrong with my rear end is stock 3.08s and my t-lok is gone. $800 bucks isnt a bad price but shipping is gonna be nifty? tax return im getting the motor rebuilt, may even get him to do that. id do it myself because as far as the tranny & motor i can do myself but i dont mess with rear ends, the only thing that screws me is i have no garage so im not screwing with anything that takes longer then a day or 2.

I had 3.08's with the one wheel wonder and bought a whole new ford rear with 3.73's and it was a bit of a letdown, not trying to belittle it, just saying dont get as excited as I did, cause I was a bit disapointed
