Since I've been looking into ls1 FC's, a lot of talk has been about the streagth of rear ends. So how does a rear end work? What's it consist of? Thanks guys

you can swap out the differential gears to change the ratio also...4.11 gearing is very low...you will be reving in the higher rpms at highway speeds then you would with 3.73 gears. Its a pretty basic setup on rwd cars.
