With a centrifugal, i think the Camaro's stock rear end gearing will make it feel a bit more sluggish... for a centri i would run like a 3.73 in a manual and possible a 4.10 in an automatic...
Having owned both now, there is no way I would go back to a centri...

Wouldn't the properties of coming in slower be much better for our chassis ? The turbo setups are traction limited, seems their issue is the power comes on to quick to be effective. This is the very offering I was hoping for, i think it will excell in drivability and will return better numbers in the 1/4.
The big question is, do we spend 6k on this or spend 12k and buy a 68 or 69 camaro with a decent chassis.
