    3 or 4 spd / drums or discs ?

    Come on its a no brainer. Go with a four speed no matter what the condition your three speed is in. The way the muscle car values are today stock ones do not really bring that much more than slightly non stock ones. Plus if you ever want to go back to a three speed for some reason you can always...

    Steering problem...need help....

    I dont know what kind of tires you are using but sometimes the cheap ones the metal bands in them will break causing the car to wonder. Check the stagger (diameter) on your tires. Make sure there within and 1/4 of each other or that could cause problems.

    rearend swap?

    yes it will fit it is a direct bolt on. But the 96 is longer by like a quarter inch on each side. So you have to check the clearance for certain rims and tires. You should be okay as long as you dont run wider than an 8 inch rim.

    5 lug conversion

    No the spindles arent the same. I think the 79-86 v-8s as well as 79-93 with the four cylinder have the same spindle. So those years have the same spindles. The cheapest way to go to 5 lug with your spindels is to get 83 to 90 something 4-cylinder 2wheel drive rangers rotors. Pick 85 to be safe...

    long or short

    i think long tubes sound alot better. But your floor boards will get hot. I have long tubes on my 65 and i dont have to run the heater half the time. but as far as performance it probably wouldnt give you any more performance than short tubes.

    Cooling Woes!--please help.......

    what kind of water pump did you get. They make a reverse flow pump for when you get rid of the smog or power steering or one of those. Im not sure which way it is supposed to spin. Also did you put the thermostat in the right way. Just the simple stuff.

    429bb with auto or toploader 4 speed?

    im mostly interested in the linkage how that will work out. But what are you wanting to do with the car. Most likely the strip. Its hard to say. Do you think you could be consistent and as fast with a four speed as you could a c-4 or 6.
