Ok here is something I have been wondering for 2 years now. I am getting answers half and half on this question... Will a 1957 rear end with 3.73 gears hold under the power of a 383 stroker or 350 and a turbo 400 tranny? I have this rear end for my 48 Chevy but some people said it's too weak and other said it's not. The car is a tad heavy I think (big kind of car) and will have a bit of power going to the rear wheels but not a drag car.
I identified the engine before and couldn't figure it out what it was but a few people said it was a 57 rear end.
I'd appreciate any help here guys! Thanks!
