Central, we do rely upon member contributions to keep the site and server running smoothly. As membership grows, so does
site usage. Recently we have seen a huge jump in server load and bandwidth. As a result, at times we notice extremely
slow page loading. Many of you may have also noticed the new member rankings used to recognize supporting members.

I have an opportunity buy a complete drive line out of a 86 Monte SS. Would I get any better performance if installed in 87 Elky with overdrive. _________________ That which does not kill us makes us stronger.

Depends on what your running now. What you'll get out of the Monte is a 190(I believe) horse 305, a 2004R overdrive transmission and a 3.73 geared 7.5" 10 bolt rear end probably with out a posi. If it were me I'd take the tranny and rear end and find a 350 to put in front of it.
