Congrats! If youre interested in getting 2-3 less mpg on the highway, get a 3.55 rear end. It will feel like 40-50hp easy.

is traction a problem with the blower???

Good question, what is the new top speed with a 3.55?

I found a calculator somewhere on VCAs website a while back, but I dont remember where. The new top end was in the high 170's or low 180's. I got my car up to 170 after the gear swap and it was still pulling before I had to slow down. Its a great upgrade for most Viper owners. My highway mileage is still about 20 mpg.

dhady - Just sell the Vette and youll never have to worry about $$$ for Viper upgrades
