    im thinkin about gettin new gears for the old 3.1 ;)
    should i get 3.42's or 3.73's or what?
    and what do they do?
    i mean, dont they help you accelerate off the line way faster but they decrease fuel economy?

    pros/cons?

    If you drive the car everyday get 3:42. If you just drive on the weekend or you dont do a whole lot of highway driving get 3:73. You probably have 3:23 like my girlfriends 3.1 firebird and it's pretty punchy down low.

      Ultralites are nearly 25% lighter than the stock 1.6 rockers and 8% lighter than the SLP aluminum...
