I just picked up Ford Racing 4.10s at the NMRA vs. NMCA "Super Bowl" here at Route 66 Raceway in Joliet, IL. It's a blast by the way. I bought them for $180. I made sure they were the 410A gears and not the Motive made ones.

Now should I spend the money on the SVO (Ford Racing) 8.8" Rear End Girdle or get that later? I'd like to spend my money on shaving my E/T off a bit more.

What would be my next best mod?

I have Long Tube Headers, K&N FIPK2, O/R H Pipe, Spin Tech full exhaust, MT E/T Streets, MSD Wires and Coil Packs (not really speed, but have them on there because I wanted new wires and coil packs. :wink )

I was going to make the splurge on the SCT Livewire and get the "custom tune" from American Muscle to make complete use out of all my bolt ons so far. What (besides a power adder) would be the next best thing to gain some perfomance at this point? I could go with an Aluminum Driveshaft or something. I don't want to start on suspension just yet, I'm hooking great and suspension will be a huge money pit. I want to do it right the first time. I absolutely hate dealing with removing the springs and such, it is just a pain to me for some reason.

Basically, now that I have the 4.10s going in shortly, would just a canned tune give the car even more kick? I'm getting jealous of Matt over there dominating left and right with his GT.
