I WOULD PUT IN 3.25'S OR SOMEWHERE IN THAT RANGE. 4.11'S ARE TOO LOW FOR A DAILY DRIVER UNLESS YOU HAVE HUGE TIRES IN THE REAR. THE SPARE PUMPKIN IDEA WOULD BE OK TOO UNLESS YOU WERE CHANGING IT EVERY WEEKEND..
: My Mav has 2.87 gears, mild 289, and a c4 auto. Its time for some gears. I'm thinking about buying a set of 3.70's and leaving them in for everything. Or keeping the 2.87's and buying a new center section with 4.11's and a posi. Using the 4.11 for cruzing and then swaping the 2.87 in for road trips. I don't race but love the idea of those 4.11's Would they be too much gear for a "stock" car? Your opinions? Russ
