You might want to rethink the 3.9 with a AT5 . At the power level you will be at . You will find out real soon , you will not have any traction at all . A 3.7 rear equals what a 3.9 rear is for the MT6 . You going even further . I have a Vortech SC at 425whp and 348trq , I have NO traction at all in 1st and 2nd at 1/3 throttle or more . Thats with the 3.5 rear . You probably will wanna go back to a 3.3 rear as soon as you're up and running . I just switched back to the 3.3 VLSD rear

booger - I think he was talking about 3.9 liters if displacement vs. rear end gearing.

Will do. I'm actually kinda curious myself. In addition to better flow, they should also lower shaft speeds in turn making them a bit more reliable. Thats just my theory but, someone who has a complete understanding could validate that.

Who did the conversion for you? SFR? How much was it?

I was looking at the 20G upgrade that SGP does and it would be nice to have options.

happens with every car manufacturer. lol... it is the most cost effective "R&D" to churn out numbers.
