Another option Matt, would a Viper rear end work on the GENIII? You can opt
to replace the transmission with a Tremac 5 or 6 speed from the Viper.

Scale?Matt!!
Yes, The NV-3500 survived, she's still kicking!! But I don't have much faith
in the NV-3500 given this kind of abuse. Overall its a decent tranny, but
its no race transmission. Only problem I had with it was when I dyno'd one
time, I ran the truck up to 120+ mph and apparently a bushing in the
tailshaft got damaged under high speed. This caused the tailshaft to leak
fluid. DC opted to replace the entire gear box under warranty, even though
the gears were fine!
Give me that HEMI RT, and a Borg Warner behind it, the ultimate LT Killa!

I don't get it. I dumped my Ford Stang clutch at 5000 RPM all the time when
I had the car and no problems. Now with the Dodge, anything over 3500 is
heading for a break down. What gives?<<
