fullmetal... thanks for the offer. I already have the 2.76 gear that is already shimmed up and ready to go. Just need to swap it back into this case and set the backlash.

As for the 10.0 comments... I know it's a PITA that's why I'm hesitant just to push this motor a little more for 9.70 or something.

If I'm going to go for it, I'll build a bigger single turbo Gen 3 hemi and push the 8.50 cage rule...
