Stock low/rev drum - use Kevlar or Red lined Aluminum low/rev drum - Red lined, no grooves If you are using a non LBA valvebody, it will only be used in Reverse and not be subjected to much wear. I prefer the Red lined. John

Sounds like the rear band isn't that crucial..but,I want something that will last a good while.The drums are factory steel. My VB is a TA Cheetah..reverse shift pattern,and of course,is manual shift.

Correct... if it has LBA the engine will slow the car in manual low gear... a non LBA will just free wheel (the engine does not slow the car)
