Looks like you have a GREAT start to an awesome build.
Thank - you for serving too. Take a look at my build thread for further ideas. I am trying to maintain a good balance between Cosmetic, Performance, and Handling mods. The money of I have spent is broken into those 3 areas and is currently at 38%, 27% and 35% respectively. If you should have any questions please feel free to send me a PM. http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=77861 |

Nice car you got there :). I'm looking into the package for sways and springs, but also trying to snag a ss differential to go the 3.91 route :D. Any idea of increase torque numbers with the rear? |
Thank - you, I too was looking into the rear posi set-up from an SS. Might be next winter mod. From what I have read thou the 3.91 might be to much gear for our V6 auto. It will take ours out of some of the power band. So I concluded if I get one, I will stick with the 3.73 gearing. There are plenty of threads that talk about the gears, and increased torque, I do not remember the numbers thou.

I'm quoting Apex-Chase here- "Swapping to 3.73 will result with an equivalent torque gain of approximately 15% or 41 lb.-ft. of torque and will raise 70 MPH cruising RPM from right at 2000 to just under 2300. Going to 3.91 will get you in the neighborhood of a 20% torque gain and put you over 2400 RPM at 70 MPH. "
He was referring to the swap for a manual V6 as well, so those numbers will differ in the automatic, but gives you an idea of what to expect. I bought my 3.73's from Chase and I'm sure he'd take good care of, and answer any questions regarding the swap in an auto car. :nod: Your build is sounding great OP, and springs/sways will make a big improvement in handling. IMHO you also want to add rear subframe bushing inserts in any 2010 with sporting intentions! |
Yeah, I got into looking into the project. With axles, hubs, the diff, and installation it will be a few more bucks than I thought. I always wanted to pull the trigger in the Ipf supercharger, so I have been talking to them recently. It is starting to sound good :)
