So, I'm getting ready for my next performance upgrade. I'm thinking of getting 3.73 gears for the 7.5 inch rear end (because a mechanic told me 4.10 gears eat up gas like crazy). I was thinking about getting these gears http://www.americanmuscle.com/mopepl3gefor.html

I was also thinking of getting new headers. What I'm looking for are headers that will keep my deep exhaust sound and still give me HP. When my car is idle, my exhaust isn't loud but its a quiet, deep. Anyhow, I was thinking about getting these...

Keep in mind I have a X-Charger and already have a T-Lok. Let me know about these two or if you have other suggestions. The price tag is also a factor.

3.73's will be good for your auto, that's what I went with and i love them.  Can't help you out on the headers.

    if ur going to get headers i would get long tubes and be done with it. but if u want a install tht u can do urself, then get shorties. either from JBA, Gibson, or Stainless Works.
