Sorry to hijack but... Are you serious? Isn't 2.73 (sorry, 2.92 is my mistake) a bit low? Right now I have 3.73. So it's 3.73, 3.42, 3.23, 3.08 and 2.73. Of course, if I had a V8 with plenty of torque, I wouldn't be asking the same question... :/

When I changed my Astro's rear I put in 3:23's instead of the 3:73's added 15 % to the mileage per tank full
No burnouts however lol

We have a good bunch of vanners who will be making their first visit up here so we have to make it even more special.
I'm on the case to get a couple of former vanners to pay a visit. Both are renowned pinstripe artists, known for their airbrush skills especially flames and have built and owned radical custom vans. Every year we see 70's era vanners visiting the event, some of them keep coming back after getting another taste of vanning. | | | Re: VanFest 12, June 13-15, 2008 | Joined: Feb 2007 Posts: 6,266 Vanner Extraordinaire | Vanner Extraordinaire Joined: Feb 2007 Posts: 6,266 | While you are leaning on folks...it sure would be nice to see Chris and Rita...
