    Ultimate rear end build??

    I used an Eaton posi locker with 373s and Strange 31 spline axles. It is SOLID! I did not weld the axle tubes, because you always take the chance of warping them if you REALLY dont know what you are doing. I do like the above recommendation about only a ratcheting locker for street use. Mine...

    What tranny?

    If I plan to stop at somewhere around 450 hp with 373s in the rear, what tranny would I be better off with, TKO 500 or 600? Is the TKO600 geared a little higher and really too high for 373s? This is just kinda what I gather after reading, correct me if Im wrong. What tranny and WHY?

    Being a body guy myself, not for a living but on the side, if you are going black, without a doubt and your mind isnt changing, I would definitely go with a PPG epoxy primer. DP90LF is the primer, it is black in color. Then it requires a catalyst. There are two types of catalyst you can use...

    People These Days!!

    Man I used small scres in the top and bottom side of the housings. You cant see the bottom ones and only see the top ones when the hatch is open. Also get black screws and they show even less. I put about 4 on top and 3 on bottom. Just and idea and it looks very clean.

    4 cylinder springs up front?

    A lot of people run this setup and it seems to work fine. It will lower a little but not so much as a lowering spring and it still rides nice. This is just my 2cents.
