forced to upgrade. to what?

k well my stupid a$$ broke something again! this is what happend i just turned on my car and left in a rush to get my new exhaust put on. anyway a couple feet down the road i go to make a right and i want to make a smoke show to show off infront of some girls and she stalled on me. so i put her in nutral and started her back up and gave a couple revs but i had the music so loud that i could not hear if the rev come down enough to put it into gear then boom, drestroyed my gears, my tranny is fine though thank ***. so anyway i gotta fix what ever i broke in there and chances are its the gears so i am just gunna upgrade them while i am at it so what should i tell the dude i want in my car???

this is what i got.
350,bored,rollers,cam,holley contender intake, holley 750 carb, headers, and a th350 tranny. so what gears should i tell him to put in that would be best.

also is there a diffrence if i get stock gears or higher gears i mean price wise is there a diffrence?

LOL, I gotta laugh...a fathers fears come true

Call around for gear prices..

Without knowing your engine spec's. tough to recommend a gear.

i/e "Rollers and cam" don't really tell anything.

ahh the durable turbo350 tranny.

Also to take in mind is gas mileage. large gears like 4.11's in theory would be hprrible with gas.

Is this a daily driver? Do some research on your end.
