Hey all, new here. I'm looking for any and all helpful suggestions. Over the weekend, I broke my pinion on my borg warner in my 89 firebird LT1 running CMC2. I had been running a 3.45 gear but was considering going to a 10 bolt and a 3.90.

Any suggestions regarding the rear end and differential is appreciated.

I know it is allowed to have 4th gen rears now in 3rd gen cars as they made me take one out when it wasn't! I helped get that rule changed - economical racing and parts was a good part of the argument, also that using 4th gen wheels makes it all good with the track width. This rule has been in place for many years without dispute to my knowledge.
