A 200R4 trans would give the car quite a boost,along with better fuel economy. That car is heavy and needs more gearing.

I have super skinny 13" tires and cant even do a burnout most of the time..   I'm not looking for 8 million horsepower, just something a little more respectable than the 110 HP is feels like I have now..   do I need to build up the motor some, or would a trans swap to a 200R4 be the way to go?   Thank you for any help you can give..     Dan McIntosh Street Metal Fabrications Pavement Scraping 1964 Impala S.S. http://www.lowriderimpala.com
