    First up - I'm still building the car so it's all theoretical at this point. I'm using a WR Toploader and a 2.92 rear end with my mild tune 302W. The car is very light so I'm not anticipating any...

    I liked my cr toplaoder but with a 3.70 rear freeway speeds were screaming with RPMs. I switched to the TKO600 w/ .82 5th. Cruising the freeway is so much better at around 2000 rpms, but all the...

    Close ratio top loader, vintage racing rules require it. Will let you know how it works once I get the car on the track. Just dry fit it on the engine while waiting for the roller to get back home.

    TKO600RR. The road race version has a gear spread that covered all the basses for me. No super low first and no ridicules OD (.80) that made everything from cruising to open tracking easy with a...
