    ive ran 488s with the t56 and was a good gear for the 408 i had, now with the turbos im sitting at 410s for gears

    i run caltracs with rancho shocks and a police edition tahoe rear sway bar with preload......leaving off vacuum ive pulled best of 1.65 on a 17x7 wheel with a 10" slick
    2002 Lightning - GT headed 5.5Litre w/ Twin 7665s
    2002 Silverado - 427Lsx w/ Twin gt4202s
    2010 Silverado crewcab Z71 - 5.3litre w/ procharger
    2000 Wrangler - 5.3litre with some stance
    2014 Xsport- 3.5 Eco boost
    412 Motorsports

    it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference

    Maybe I'll go the caltracs route. Can't argue with your results. Still gunna have to regear. I don't have a turbo.

    Ok, I have one more question, but it's a tough one. Nobody around here knows. If I was thinking, could the spindles off a camaro work on our trucks? Like if you popped the ball joints, and put in a camaro set of spindles in there place? I've worked on 4wds and ball joint size won't matter, things can be replaced or drilled out to custom fit. But I'm curious how close everythingis. I could get my five lug and run some 15 inch weld wheels. Oh, and for the rear, I'm going to ladder bar the back end. C notch it and run my coilovers. Front I'll get the coilovers and remove the torsion bar junk. Anybody have any thoughts on these spindles?
