[Chevelle-list] Carrier rebuild

Ryan, I am running 3.31 gears in my 12 bolt behind a TH 400. The final
drive is 1:1 and I have 27" tall tires, 255/60 15's, and I am turning up
around 2800 at 65 MPH. The car launches real well and I can smoke a tire
or two when I want to. Just my input.

Have any of you guys rebuilt your 12 bolt carriers?  What kit did you
buy and where did you buy it?  Are you happy with the kit?  I've seen a
couple kit that replace the clutches and that is about it.  Shouldnt
more of the guts be replaced while you have it apart?  
Any help would be appreciated.
 
Also...anybody out there running 3.55 ring and pinion in the rearend? I
think that is the set that I am going to buy but wanted some feed back
on them.  A buddy has 3.73 and it winds out on the interstate.  I know
tire size, tranny, etc... all make a difference but just wanted some
quick ideas.  
 
Thanks
Ryan
