that was optional, may been a stock installed but not 100% stock!!!! it was a dealer option just like my AOD car came with the optional 327s. standard gear is 273.... that is like saying even tho my truck came with 373 stock it was a dealer option. standard gear for it would be 342 with an open diff

i think im gonna get 3.90 gears after a small chat with luckythirteen. kind of like a compromise between 3.73 and 4.10.

believe it or not but 308s do have a place in cars. largely boosted cars can really benefit from them. reason why im removing my 410s and putting 327s back in it come spring hopefully. and i know of alot more t5 cars with the stock 273s then i do with 308s but like you said who cares

Holy signature batman.
LIke that huh? LOL
Actually was having trouble trying to change my sig pic to this one and it was even bigger than this before I sized it down some, then had to quit messing with it to go get dressed for our track banquet Saturday night and I haven't been back on since to modify it some more. never fear, I will get it smaller soon as my ego ain't that big like some of the peeps on here! I do think it's a damn good pic, one of the best I've got of the car!
