Gear ratio question
I have experience working on every part of a classic but what I don't know I will ask! I recently acquired 2 9in rear ends, one with 3:73? and the other with 2:75. I need to choose the right one to put under my 46 bus. coupe. I want a descent driver that I can drive into Austin about 35 miles from home on the hwy but I hope to still have some pep. In your much more knowledgeable opinion which would you choose and why? I can rebuild a pont 316, 287, olds 303 ect but never learned gear ratios. Plz help and thx. Next q will be what the best way to attach this thing to the existing frame is.
6skullzWait... where do these other bolts go?
on small cars yes. but fat fender cars are pretty much the same in size and weight as the donor car. i found s10 brakes work great on fat fender and pickups. a deuce will just need manual brakes...
Time for brakes
