I don't hate or like my 3.07 s with my nv. On the highway I love it, through town I hate it. There is to big of a gap between third and fourth and often find myself lugging or screaming it. Towing it's ok once I get into fourth, but it sucks to get up to speed quietly and without making a cloud.

well rev, if you're gonna go visit cman, the time honored instructions to find lafayette is head north till you smell it then head west till you step in it.

I've been thinking a dana 80 or chevy 14 bolt swap and probably 3.73's but still up in the air since time lately seems hard to come by.

Ain't that the truth! :lol: I have been through Middlefork once, on my way to Russiaville. I found no foul smells in Howard County, Clinton County is a whole different deal :mrgreen:
