This is about 1 hor from me so I'm going to try to pick them up this weekend.  I already contacted him before I bid and he was ok with me picking them up.  WOO HOO!!!  Now I just need a suregrip or posi carrier....something other than the open one that I have..... :bananasmi  :bananasmi  :bananasmi

I changed my stock 3.23's to 3.91's back in '76, and I love 'em.  Made a huge difference.  You'll be wearing out those back tires in no time.   :burnout:

I drive on the Interstate with my 3.91 with no problems, just not as fast as I did with taller gears.

I used to run those in my 440+6 Challenger.  I would be going 40 mph. and people would yell "SHIFT".  I was in 4th with nowhere to go.  Talk about burn outs.
