I was thinking of shift kit.

- Then put headers on.

go with 3:73 gears i have 4:10, theyre just too low. i run out of gear too quick.adj. torque arm, drive shaft loop, adj. lower control arms port base, runners, plenum.more to come, later jimmy

Hey man thanks alot for the ideas!
kevin
- Now putting in the 3:73 can i still use my same rear end? If so how much do you think it will cost? If i cant use my same rear end how much will it cost?
- Then i dont really know what runners, plenum, and the drive shaft loop is if you can explane each one.

Re: What should be my next MODS!
hey man my bad ,you have tbi,not tpi sorry. gears should run around $200.00 bucks or so. going from 2:73 to 3:73, youll have to run a thick ring gear or a ring gear spacer. the drive shaft loop is a loop the drive shaft fits thru, if the shaft u-joint breaks it keeps the shaft inside the loop and from hitting the road,or exhaust pipes, or e-brake cables ,or the vehicle following you.

you can go to a junkyard and pick up a posi rear for a few hundred bucks, may even find one with 3:42 or 3:73 gears.look on here for engine/drivetrain parts for sale forum,they have gearsets and rear ends for sale.later jimmy
