If you decide on a Toploader, you probably want to get the wide ratio version. I had the wide ratio in my street cobra and I use the close ration in the race car. 1st gear in the close ratio is really tall and you will be predominantly in first gear for city driving. As Glen suggested, go with a rear end in the 3.54, 3.31, 3.27 range. You do not want something in the 4.10 or 3.90 range for street driving, unless you plan on racing from stop light to stop light, as the exhaust gets pretty loud at higher rpms and your hearing will suffer.

Good luck.

Jim
