Torque Converter and Rearend

[defln67]

Ok ive got the weakest, lowest stallin converter you can get for my car, if i change that will that help very much and Is it worth the $98.00 bucks?


I found a 3.73 ring and pinion set but what do i look for to see if it fits, its for 7.5" 10 bolt rearend, what else or is that it? its $136

changing the converter will give ya hte best bang for the buck, and if you can pick up a good converter for 98 bucks GO FOR IT!

as far as the rear goes i think you've got an 8.5" 10-bolt but dont quote me on that...if you have a 7.5" dont waste your cash doing anything to it...a couple hard launches and itll explode

So its GO for the torque converter, is it very hard to change the converter?

so what would you suggest that i do with the rearend? Moneys very tight. . . any suggestions?

Not hard at all. Just make sure you aren't going with too high of a stall. Converters need to be matched to what you have. If not, it will make your car slower over all and the miliage will go to chit.
