Thanks : : ------------------------------- : : i havent done the research yet, but i assume my auto-powered, V8 maverick, came equipped with the 2:79 gear. : : i would like to upgrade that gear into the 3:25-3:50 range. : : were the manual transmissioned mavericks geared differently? : : im looking for the quickest, cheapest, and easiest to find way of upgrading. : : also, i was told that many mustang II's and capri's came with a posi-trak that will fit nicely into a maverick's 8 inch housing. : : anyone care to shed some light on this subject? : : what cars in particular should i be looking for? : : thanks : : RR
