Nice find.. They are charging more than the dealer on the engine and trans.. Last time I looked, the price difference between the V6 and GT was only about $3-4K.. This is actually a good argument to buy GT.. LOL!!

Yes.. I think its cheaper to use PowerHouse's rear-end setup..

Moser 28 Spline axles, $389

FMS Traction-Lok $229.95

Total=$618

Half the cost of that setup.. With the other $532 bucks, you can put it towards a Zex Nitro System.. Then you'll be kickin azz and taken names Brodude2002!


But overall, they are still nice finds, and you did the right thing posting them..

Better yet, we will need the 8.8 afterall.. So lets wait for awhile longer.. But it appears we wont be able to thrift on the rear-end.. However, the good news is our motors are made from the stuff legends are made from.. Lets just be alittle more patient my friend..

Thats how I feel.. Let me twist it, then I'll have an excuse to replace it.. LOL!!

Powerhouse is showing us the absolute extreme situation.. I'm not putting slicks on my car, and launching it from a dead stop..

I think he has pretty much proven the 7.5 upgrade parts will suit our everyday needs.. I know we keep going back and forth on this, but seriously how many of you will put slicks on your car?

*raises hand* Slicks will be goin on the car for the strip, and strip only. Unless I really feel mean and want to go down to the local Burger King hang out and have some rice for dinner late one night

Ya know, I think we should have more appreciation for ricers. Every time I get in a foul mood it never fails that one pulls up beside me at a redlight and revs his engine. My life just gets instantly better for some reason...
