Thanks for all the replys ..... I updated my profile ... Bruce , the Tom McCahill road test is a good read on the difference ... appears the 3.54 may not be the best overall choice for this car as those who have it indicate a slug off the line ..... those with 3.78 appear to like the better overall performance ... I do have a set of 3.78 gears I could install , so I will do that. Down the road if I find a columbia or Lloyd Young overdrive the 3.78 will work with them as well. I thought about the Mitchell OD but do not want to cut the floor for clearance .....
