3300 is screaming when your cruising

[TurboNova]

yeah I know its a tough decision I just dont want to give up that seat of the pants feeling with such a low gear. I may go to a 3.73 I just dont know

if its a 3 speed car don't run much more than a 3.73 if its going to see street duty

 

I've always been fond of quadrajets if your handy you build four or five of them all jetted different real cheap becuase most people will give them away then take them to the track or the dyno and keep the one that makes the best number you can find 750's and 800's on big block caddy's and old buicks

yeah I have decided to go 3.73 and Rob already has my new 750DP doing a kit in it and painting it. I am sure it will be sweet when it comes back and I will post some pics
