MetroMPG- steady state at 60 mph. so 100 at 60. I wouldn't mind taller gearing, but the transmission that is in there is the 2nd tallest and it's working so I'll keep it in there for the time being. 3.52 are hard to find around here and i don't have the money. I could get bigger wheels, but I'm going to stick with the 12 inch stock wheels in the front for now until I get back to work. Baseball season is fun, but not working sucks...

albyneau- Thank you for the concern scott, but this isn't just any stainless hardware. it was specially put together by a member on the geometroforums so everything is all spec'd out correctly. headbolts aren't part of the kit though so I'll be using some head bolts from a guy named "Geo Glenn"
