Definately blaise, I have promised chuckb a trip there for a 430 vs 400 race. Let me know the next time you are headed that way.

I am still trying to decide if I should run the heavier 18's and get more traction or the 17's and spin some... I think I am going to try the 17's first time out.

Anyone else have times for their gs? I found a 3.92 rear for $200, I'm going to get this and put it in just to see what happens. Unfortunately I gotta fix my a/c first

Personally I think 3.92 is bit to much gear for the GS. But if you have the resources and don't have to pay a bunch of $$$ to get it installed....Go for it and let us know the results.

I know it's a tall gear, but it's only $200 and i'm doing the swap myself. Plus once I get sick of it I'll just swap back the original. I want to see how much faster my E.T. will be.

Definately keep us posted on your times.....I surely would be interested in your results. One thing your going to notice is that your going to have to shift into 4th right before the end of the 1/4 mile.
