went from the stock 3:08's to 3:73's. I still have to put the nuts on the shocks,bleed the brakes,and put the tires back on before I can drive it but that shouldn't take no more than an hour tomorrow,so be expecting to hear how the car does and how much faster the seat of the pants will be

it's no fun doing it in the dirt you get even dirtier,but it'll be worth it.I remember how they felt in my 85 and it always wheel hopped

He's a tech at a Ford dealer so we have a shop and a lift at our disposal thank goodness. When I said Me and my Dad, I ment My Dad would be doing it

ok so I finished up tonight and just went for a drive but it's wet out and couldn't really get on it, but I can definitely tell it's faster. We have a placed marked out on the road close to where I live,and before with the 3:08's on dry pavement, it would hit 65.With 3:73's on wet pavement,I couldn't floor it in 1st or 2nd and spinning all through 2nd,went to 3rd and still ran 60 mph so tomorrow I'll know for sure how it does as long as it doesn't rain

I've heard that theres really no better bang for the buck then getting gears.

mustangsneverdie

I now know why lol

mjr46

better correct the speedo gear before you consider the mph test accurate..lol

mustangsneverdie

it's already correct 60 mph @ 2000rpms right? When I changed transmissions it already had the gear in it for 3:73's
