Gearing question for modded '78
Hello all, let me tell you a bit about my car before I ask your advice...
it is a '78 Pace Car with a ZZ4 350 and 2004r tranny...it's got the original gearing (3.08, right?) and I'd like some more torque (after all I don't really need to keep driving it at 120). Anybody out there with a similar setup?...any suggestions?

I have had 3.55, 3.70 and 4.11 gears in my car with varous transmissions. I always felt the 4.11 was just to much gear for a street driven car. The 3.70 with the 1st gear of the 200 will provide plenty of acceleration. Also the 4.10 gear will need a different carrier or a special 4 series gear to fit on a 3 series carrier.
