Default Christmas in May.....(She left her Purse Out)

Santa came today.......LOL........The Biscayne ended up being a "Great" Car........Love to drive it.......But.....That's the problem......Close Ratio Muncie (2.20 first gear) and a 3.90 rear are great for the city driving....But....Get's "Old" real quick on the Highway 3000rpm at 55 mph........Want to change the Rear gears to a 3.06 for the Highway, but the 2.20 first gear is not suited for a 3.06 rear and city driving.........So.....After going over all the options of Transmissions (6 Speeds,Tremec,5 speed w/overdrive, Richmond 5 speeds) with Mark Webster.....He convinced me that the easiest way to get to where I wanted to be without any "Hammering", Cutting the Tunnel, moving the Crossmember, or Shifter locations was to put in a Richmond Super T 10 with a 2.88 first gear with the 3.06 rear end gears..............So.........As I was walking thru the house the other day, .....I noticed her Purse on the Kitchen table......LOL....

If you hurry you can have it done in time for power tour. We need someone with a trunk that will haul everything.
