I was tempted to post the diff discrepancy yesterday morning, but I figured it would take care of itself, as it has. I don't think that the 3.31 ratio was ever made by the after market. It was...

If you want rare, you could hold out an '84 with the optional lower, 3.31:1 rear gears. They made 410 of those. There is no telling how many of the 410 were manual transmission. Happy hunting.

If you screwed up the O2 wire, that would make it run rich. If the ECM can't get the O2 read, it can't adjust the fuel mixture properly.

I have to agree with others. The only rpm point the gears HAVE to affect are the trap speed rpms. If 5500 rpms is so far past your power curve, why are you waiting until 6000 rpms to shift? I...
