Probably more of a seat of the pants, and fun factor mod than anything. 1-2 tenths at the most. Maybe a little more for 2.73 guys.

I knock a whole .06 off my times with the same 60' time. I did gain 1.5 MPH though....

Make sure to get some drag radials and/or slicks with the gears. Traction goes down the drain. Of course, I did go from 2.73's to 3.73's. I am thinking about a stall now, so traction will really be gone.
