Hmm? Gears? Open the gearbox? Tell me more please.Craig201MPH said:personally the first thing I would do is gears. The engine won't make anymore power but it will feel faster. That and 6th gear will be usable at legal highway speeds.

Change the final drive ratio. The stock is 3.07. Going to 3.54's will be a whole new ballgame.Mike K said:Hmm? Gears? Open the gearbox?

Spins up quicker..."feels" like alot more power...and I can pull a fairly stock Viper with just my gears...Super Squirrel said:bitten,
the 307's to 345's....what xactly is diff about them? torque?
I feel the B&M is a waste of money...the stock shifter with a shorter shift knob (MGW) works fantastic...Super Squirrel said:bitten, what kind of price range (yes, I'm too lazy to research it) are we talking here and do you feel that the B&M ripper is the golden standard of short shifters?
