[RICK LAKE]

Allen Driveability is a large area. You will have your hands full with the gearing of 3.73. With this kind of power and a 5 spd trans, I would drop the rear to 3.20's to 3.40's. That trans is good for 500 hp and tork. You are pass the max spec on both ratings. Will the trans hold up, depends on your driving. Normal driving with street tires BFG's no problem. Go to a Kummo,or Goodyear street slick and 3,000 grand clutch drops. Say goodnight to Hollywood. You will have a race between the Speedo gauge and the fuel level gauge of who gets to 0 first. With the added weight in the front end, you may adjust the weight in the car around and have the wheel alignment rechecked. If you have P/S, I see no problem with driving. A diaper and spare underwear in the glovebox for just in case. You are going to have your hand full with another what, 100 hp? Just be careful, that's all. Rick L. Ps I am going to a 496 motor next year with a 200 hp and tork increase.
