    A few of us got together the other night and figured we'd line 'em up. Enjoy!

    You know, you're ALWAYS doing this in my damned back yard! Why do I never go out at night?!

    Haha, you should bring the car out some time. I bet that white Z28 would be a good run for you.

    Man that 4speed really hurts the Z28.

    Bro you really need the 3.27 diff. Makes 40mph rolls feel soooooooo much better.

    Yeah, the auto fbodies seem to do decent until they hit 3rd gearand then they fall right on their faces.

    I was thinking about going with a 3.45 diff out of a manual Camaro. Are people having better luck with one over the other?

    Really depends on what you want for highway mileage. There isn't much difference there, but the Camaro rear swaps directly to our cars, so if you want to change gears after that there are more options available for you.

    Gas milage isn't too important to me with this vehicle, so 3.45's will probably be the ones I go with.
