4.10s will go in. Currently the gears are 3.55's.

Gears and the cover are the only things I will be changing on that rear end. Hopefully it holds up if/when I launch on the bottle. If not...off to a 9"

You should never require a 9". Even if you do I would stray away if you could. I know they're strong but they're heavyyyy. The 8.8" should be more than enough since you're not pumping out 1000hp.

HP wouldn't be the issue with the rear tq would. And it doesn't necessarily take a massive amount to break one. They make a 9" that isn't extremely heavy.

Things have a tendency to break when you launch off nitrous..we'll see what happens

TB is a 65mm I don't want to go bigger due to CA emissions concerns, visual will kill me. This thing will have to be pulled off during inspection, no stamp, 70mm would be more difficult then that.

one could turn that narrow band gauge into a wide band with one of these nifty LC-1 kits sold by innovate motorsports.

Yea, but then again I had no choice, lol. But I figured, I'm not going to stop racing, so I may as well get faster while I'm at it.

And yea, thought about the wideband, the A/F off the nitrous is what i'll be worried about, but with the tune and the proper jetting I should be ok. We'll see though.

Motor was pulled out of the car today, more pics to come.

Uh that stroker is being built. And the ring from what we saw of it yesterday was fine. The piston itself just had the nice break, the other two cylinders next to it chomped up the broke peice and it then (we believe) went out the exhaust.

Well, it is, BUT, I didn't run the nitrous properly. I was untuned, and we think I went too lean when I did this..
