rear end question
howdy,
still kinda new too this board, but was curious what rear end would be the best for a mostly stock 87 l98 corvette with 700r4 tranny i plan on having a pro go threw the tranny and have it set up. as for mods on the car i have the regular stuff flowmaster catback 2 exhaust tpi airfoil, k&N filter, so the question being what would be a good rear end to go with, i was thinking 3.73, or 3.90, which would be good so i don't roast my tires at the line, and which would throw the most power to the ground

Re: rear end question (STL94LT1)
you dont need any more than 3.07 for an L98, but you should convert to a Dana 44 carrier, and maybe a 2400-2600 stall Torque Converter
If youre gonna put a different intake, or enlarge the cubes, then maybe a 3.54.
