    I ran a Richmond 6 speed. My rear end was a 3:42. With the 3:27 first gear, it was quick off the line and with the .76 sixth gear, I could cruise the freeway like I had 2:76's.
     
  3. What rearend gear, what tire size, what is your performance goal, what power level are you putting out in the 351W? Lot of questions need more detail for a best answer. Without any details, I would say to strongly consider an overdrive trans. Just make suire the rest of the drivetrain is matched.
