    Rear axle q's - yes I've searched...

    Ok he probably or someone else changed gears if he is telling you it has 3.73's. You can check this by turning the axle one full turn and watching where the driveshaft gets bolted onto and seeing how many times it goes around. 3 and a half times would be 3.55's and 2.73's would be 2 and three...

    Thermostat ?

    180 for me my car ran with stock thermostat Autometer gauge. 195-215. So I put a 180 in it and it ran 180-190. By the way. At over 200 your oil is starting to try to cool the motor down also. This is hard on your motor and oil and makes hp go down. Go with a 180

    Pin on Cowl Hood Suggestions

    I bought my car with a lift off hood. He said he had a guy bend a 1/8 piece of steel bolted it on the firewall where the normal brackets would have been. Then he put the hood on and measured and measured then drilled the hood. He then marked the steel plates and drilled those holes.

    IMHO I don't think when your talking the horsepower you have and more I would go with a center force dual friction clutch. I loved mine and there is no spongy in it either.
