the GV OD unit is about $2200 if you buy it and put it in yourself, plus the cost of a new driveshaft.

I have been considering one of those gear vendors units. how much was it? is it easy to operate?
Why not run the Mickey thompson ET streets? less wear than a drag radial and better for street driving anyway.

well with the 27" super turbos, it should be moderately quiet at idle.. and going with P275/60R15 street radials in back. may go to DOT slicks later but I don't relish dropping $500 on a new pair of tires every few months from street wear.
I may get a second pair of rims for the back for DOT slicks so I can jsut swap em out.
I did find out I can run 4.11 or even 4.56 gears in the car now with the GV overdrive unit installed and still get really good highway gearing.
It's kind of neat having a six-speed clutchless manual trans. It's like driving an Audi, with five times the horsepower.. haha

oh I know. I just stated a few intro dates in case anyone was curious.
I was.

I wanted 440 emblems for mine, but I can't find any that don't say +6 or sixpack on them.
Mine is a magnum 4bbl so the 6pack emblems would be silly.
ah well. on with the search. I may just stick with the plain jane "V8" emblems the 318cid came with heheh

There was a guy in my town that built a custom mechanical fuel injection system in a Chevy II in the 60s, had a 327 in it, he put 283 emblems all over it and spanked a 427 Vette at the strip :) What I meant was that you really didn't see FWD, fuel injection, etc. utilized until the 70s-80s.
