When did this turn into a torque vs horsepower discussion thread?

Kingalton, why must you put your two cents when it comes to an engine setup? He is drifting the car, not drag racing it...

OP, I'd go with a more aggressive diff as stated. Use the R200(factory S-chassis rearend) and build what you need. There are many ratios out there that will swap in to give you a lower or higher final drive ratio. You'll have to do the calculations to figure out what works best for you and your engine/trans setup. I know 302's don't rev to the moon.
