i'm a new member & have been looking over a lot of pages,,,,i am wanting to swap the 3.36 diff from my base/auto 370 for a 3.69 manual diff..
top end would still be the same-just closer to the 7500 redline in 5th.
currently limits out at 7k in 5th-showing 158mph on speedo.
dont drive like that a bunch/but it's an adrenaline rush!
has anyone done this and does it affect the traction control or cruise.
thanx for any imfo.
