I tried once to get to redline in reverse in another car. The problem was the car had rear drum brakes, and let's just say that the car did not stop quite as well as it did when going forward.

Richond is telling us production will be 8-12 weeks.
So worse case senario is Feb. 04 for delivery?

For those interested in the Comptech reinforced differential housing (a must for those with FI), the 4.56 and 4.77 gear sets will also be available from Comptech at our same $590 price.

What I was getting at with the "exclusive" arrangements is if Rick is now supplying J's as well....or does J's have their own manufacturer?
