Yep. I'm going to install the tall geared tranny with a GSL-SE flywheel in the GLC. If the tranny sucks, I'll just throw in a 1st gen tranny. The reason I want ot use the tall geared tranny is because only 1st and 2nd are taller which means this can actually be considered a close ratio tranny. If the rear end was geared lower, the tranny would be ideal with either a bridge port or peripheral port. For now though, I think a street port and a relatively heavy (GSL-SE) flywheel with the tall geared rearend is a good compromise.



I've been messing with carbs lately and when the Hitachis are done, I'll move on to the Holley.



Hey, I think I can jet that Nikki for more power. Any luck gathering funds for the Sterling?

Sounds like a good plan.



As far as the Sterling, I just got some more money, but I still have a ways to go (had to buy a combo switch from Ken's shop, cost me $35).
