I had my car put in the shop last monday to replace the whole rear end with a rebuilt 8.8. Now I got it back home but i noticed i was going 30mph which is the speed limit. but i was goin 20 with my buddy following me. he said i was going 10 under. what could cause this problem? I never had the problem until the rear end was replaced. Could there be after market gears that iam not aware of? could it be the wrong rear end?

Thanks for your input.

i doubt it would be anything else.. it would take some serious mods to make anything else fit..
