its an 8.8 and if you dont do alot of highway driving you should think about 410s

i was thinking that to honestly..what about axles and a lsd diff whats a good setup

 

[itsblue95]

Depends on what you gonna do with the car

Your car has a trak-loc from the factory, and unless you are going to be taking it to the track very often... you dont need to upgrade your axles.

im strokin my motor to a 347 and later in a year going s/c
so i need advise on what gears to get and i want a better differential
what would be a good setup on that part

If your going to supercharge dont bother strocking its a waste of money.

 

[akaslick15]

lol on a different whole subject then what would you suggest keep it a stock block

 

[Addermk2]

If you are sticking to a stock block, you could piece together a s/c kit for fairly cheap. You could also run a turbo setup and make ~400-450hp for less money than a built stroker making the same power.

Considering those types of power goals, I would strongly suggest some 31 spline axles, and a new diff!

i second this. you can find a fox s/c for cheap and buy the sn95 brackets.

If you are going boost dont go 410. Go 3.55 or 3.27.

 

[akaslick15]

cool whats the stock gears on the verts for a 94 auto five 0

 

[blkmcnasty]

2.73, you can also find out exactly on the sticker in the door jam- M=2.73 and Z=3.08
