Running a stock rearend atleast from the one for my car is not a good idea. Do you have the D36 or you might have the D44.....which is what I need/want. Stock motor....I dunno what your motor can take but mine blew up 15 days after I bought the car so I dont have much room to talk. What injectors are you going to use? What lb? Any specific brand/combo with the actual fuel pump....???

i have the GM 7.5 10 bolt rear end, i tore the hell out of one with street tires, the LT1 is a must better motor than the L98, and should hold up just fine for a bit. as for injectors ive got some Ford Motorsport 42lbs, and im gonna use the aeromotived fuel system

Not really, on average it should be around 16ish to the gallon in the city, and with the 6spd ill still get about 25ish on highway

HUH??????? 16ish? I get like 14ish in city? and my car is pretty damn close to stock???? I thought that was normal......Any pointeres on whats wrong and no I have checked for codes when I had previous problems. No codes. I have only done a few minor mods and LOTS of repairs......I wonder why my milegae sux so bad....Im sure the throttle body needs to be taken apart and scrubbed down good....Maybe the "IAC"? I only have #22 injectors.This is bull**it.....

Our Camaro gets around 11 mpg cruising around town: it just pours fuel at idle (1250 RPM). The vette, however, gets 19 - 20 in daily driving despite all the mods, almost matching the Porsche (stock, but it has an auto) at 21.8 mpg.
