Is it advisable to save the old parts after a Stage I Mod?

The 3:55 gears, driveshaft and T/C. Should I save these?

When my warranty is up and I start doing these mods I fully intend to keep the original parts. Mostly just so that I can put the car back to factory spec if I should need or want to for some reason.

Doesn't cost much shelf space to hold on to them anyway, so why not?

*whew*, I thought it said "Save Old Farts" and I thought something happened to Sarge and the #1X.
:lol:

If you have the Stallion TC, you have a free adjustment due down the road. Having a spare TC will keep you up and running while you send the Stallion out for a check-up.

Would the good Doctor like to meet me at a stop light somewhere in America? I got your "old fart" right here...LOL

On the otherhand, how uncommon is a 355?

I could not see a reason I wanted to keep the 3.55s. I can buy a boxed set for about $90. So, since I am tight on storage for things I chose NOT to keep them. They are as common as water and really cheap.
Now, the TC is another matter, they cost a lot. So they have residual worth even if just as a backup part.
