Gear question, where to look, & [OT] Shaker question.
Hey guys, I am trying to find a tag or plate or sticker on my V6 for 7.5 or 8.8. Patt from Steeda wants me to let him know what it says on my rear end so he can tell me if he has the 4.10s I am wanitng. This is what he said to me.
"I will need you to check the tag on the differential cover. You're looking for 7.5 or 8.8 on the tag"
I may be looking in the wrong spot but I don't see a tag. Any help would be great, thanks, also what do these numbers mean?
One more oddball question, and I have searched the forums but I have not found anything on this. Can you upgrade the shaker 500 to the shaker 1000 after you have the car in hand, or are you stuck with what you have?

Personally I don't think it would be worth it... I had the Shaker 1000 and I thought it sounded pretty good... until I switched it for Pioneer head unit. WOW!! What a difference! The Pioneer sounded so much better! So if you looking to upgrade I would look at aftermarket stuff!
I agree about the aftermarket head unit. Ditch the factory stuff. I used to be a quality control inspector for Circuit City. All I did all day was test amps, speakers, and head units that customers had returned and who alleged were "defective". Most of the time the products were fine but they just wanted to make up an excuse so CC would take it back. Anyway, I tested many different brands and did side to side comparisons in "free time". Alpine is above and beyond the best bang for your buck, especially head units and speakers. I replaced mine with an alpine with mp3 and an ipod jack. The sound quality is excellent and there are alot of sound adjustments you can make with alpines. Not to mention it looks a lot better than the factory radio, especially at night.

Thanks guys, however I am still wanting to know if it is possible to change the 500 to a 1000, regardless if the aftermarket option sounds better and we all know it does. Thanks guys!
Also, in response to 'stlwagon', is there any possibility the gearing size could be 8.8 on a V6, or are ALL of them regardless going to be the 7.5?

The only time a v6 rearend will be 8.8 is if it is put on as aftermarket. Cost is about $1000, shelby sells a 8.8 rearend. All v6's are 7.5.
