s2king is running 7.50's at 179 with the ppg gear set, i think itll hold for the most part. this gear set is about 8k but still gotta clutch and still uses the stock trans case so there are limitations to it. anytime you put an aftermarket gear set in a stock case, it eventually becomes an expensive bandaid.
cant really put a gforce in a daily driver. more fabrication required including an adapter plate and aftermarket bellhousing. but no clutching necessary and indestructible for the most part.

How much was the gforce transmission you're using?

I don't think I'll push the car far (if at all) past 500whp anytime soon, so I should be fine if I'm easy on it. When I do decide to go big though it looks like I'll definitely be going with Gforce, unless there is a better or more cost efficient setup by then (doubtful).
