David,

I have the 8.8 rear end with a 3:27 ratio and I like it. I can break the tires loose in 2nd and 3rd when cornering real easy but I think you might like the 3:5 ratio a little better. Really have to be careful when getting on it for the start of the straight stretch. Now I just drive it as a street driver with street tires and it is great.

Ernie,

Ok which is it. You state the .8 spilit is to high and the following post says it is the .68. I think I have the .8 and it is way to high for anything but freeway crusing if that is what I actually have. It kicks my 3:27 ratio to around 2.10. I hardly ever use 5th gear even on the freeway. I guess I could go get my Tremec manual and look as it tells but I am to old and lazy to do that.
