Hey all, looking to improve the drivability of my car for more highway driving.
Current setup is all factory, 8.75 rear, power drum brakes.
I’ve looked into converting to a manual trans but parts are hard to come by.
Auto options are just as pricy or far more fab work than I’m capable of.
My father in law suggested I put steeper gears in the rear for power rpm and a higher stall on the trans to help off line acceleration.
Anyone ever done this? Combos that work?
