I reckon the 3.23s would be a good allrounder choice with your height tyre.
Burnouts are cool but Traction is the Action

Shadango, have you thought about transplanting a A-500 or A-518 to pick up the OD gear?  I'm running 3.91's and the A-518 that Tactransman built will turn it into a 2.74 on the higway...best of all worlds.

Yeah, one day I would love to.....but, only have about 10k miles on my 727 rebuild so will leave it as-is for the time being....expense plus the fact that I have no idea what all would be involved with that swap plays in as well......short term the gears are my next step.....still planning on the 3.55s......thinking i will wait til february or march to do it....the car is just sitting til then what with the weather so no point installing a $1,000 chunk just to have it sit for 3 months....
