Diff ratios on a 144 140-160

I have one complete with CIG locker. It's a Dana 30, if you get a new CWP, get a Torsen too.

What OD do you have & 1st gear? I had a 3.28 1st & 2.04 2nd & I have to say unless you have incredbly light motor internals & lightweight clutch, the 4.56 seems limited to a certain amount of acceleration. Having said that, the 4.56 would be great at the drags. I went once with 4.10's, only went to an 1/8th mile with the 4.56

Three 164's, Two 144's, One 142 & a partridge in a pear tree.
