    Stay with your current gears until you decide or get to your final buildup. if you go turbo, I've got some factory 3.08s and 3.42s.

    If he were staying N/A I'd put some 4.10 in there along with some soft drag slicks. I wanna see that thing pull the front wheels.

    if he wanted to stay 1/8th i would say 4.56 and a big shot some 90/10's and a 4 link...but the 3.42 gears will make it easier for him to hook and get him more mph...plus he will make plenty of torque with what he has and what he is going to do IMO
