The richmond trans was not a cheap swap, but it sure is fun to drive! With 4.10 gears on a 28" tall tire, I can crusie 80mph @ 3000 rpms in 6th. The thing "dances" when the throttle is opened up too... I am still thinking about trying out my 3.40 gears, as with a 3.28 1st gear I should still have plenty of "giddyup"& will be able to cruise 65 mph @ 2000 rpms on the hyway. with the price of gas, a little more milage cant hurt. Good luck, crazyL
