not enough difference to care much about. Your rpms will be up a bit but not enough to really matter.

uhhh... in the front of the transmission, connected to the back of the engine. Just a guess. Unless I totally misunderstood your last question, in which case, sorry and please rephrase.

well if your looking at getting one I wouldnt spend too much on a fancy one your not making nearly enough power to break one. So look on summit or Jegs.

And I wouldnt install one if you dont know where it is to begin with you'll probably end up fudging up the tranny.
