Heh, I just might do that. I will need to road test my new tranny. Im not too sure i will like the new gearing. im kind of fond of my FF geared tranny, especially on long trips. He said it has a taller 5th gear in it but 
im thinking its an .80. Ill just have to wait and see. Oh, ill be done in 1/2 hour, I forgot I will be leaving the axles in place and just dropping the tranny! :)- Phbthhhhhhhh!!!! heh-heh-heh!!!

nd see what kind of deal he has on one.
