Actually finally decided on my rear end gears. Going with Richmond 3.70, Traction-Loc in a standard case. (have a WAR case but not sure if its better or not, anyone know??) 28 spline in a Ford 9" Haven't pulled the trigger on a lot of stuff, like the carburetor and torque converter and ANY info...

Ordered subframe connectors today from Global West! Will weld them in as soon as it warms up a bit. Here is my set up based on jbojo setup. Any thoughts? * Rear Gear Ratio = 3.50 * Rear Tire Size = 26.2" dia * Overall Weight of the Car = 3000lbs??? * Engine’s Cam Specs: Lift, Duration and...

Now the issue of vacuum has come up. Does anyone know, or had problems with vacuum for the power brakes after a big block swap.

I agree, looks like i really did light the " cash fuse" :)

Thanks jbojo, I will use what you have given me and see what I come up with base on my setup. What is your actual tire size?

Actually, from a weight standpoint, my motor will be about the same or less considering the aluminum heads, intake, and water pump. I had a buddy do the calculations and it was less than the stock motor. I was wondering about the "twist" from a convertible so I will look into the sub frame...

Yes its going into the Red Convertible. Yanking the 302. Thanks Chuck. I will give them a call.

I spoke to my engine guy and he recommended a 3500 rpm stall converter, said the 3.25 gears "might" work and would be worth a try. His first recommendation was 3.73 ratio. I probably will get the 3.25 and see how it goes. I forgot to ask him the specs on the cam but will post as soon as I talk...

Sooo...wondering about the 3.25 posi. Fair price? Thanks...likely will buy it.

Is $200.00 fair for the 3.25 posi?

The 460 is bored .030 over which equates to a 466, right? Trick Flo aluminum heads, Edelbrock Air Gap intake, Q850 carb. Its still at the builder. Working on the drivetrain...or at least getting ready. Found a 3.25 Traction Loc for $200.00 today. Is that a fair deal? Want a fun driver in the...

466, not 100% sure about the cam, 10-1 Compression And C6 Tranny

Yes, thanks. I really appreciate all the feedback. It helps a lot!

Thanks Don! I will see if I can find a Third Member-Posi in that range. What will the car do with 2.69 gear ratio? Still trying to get a handle on the gears and how it relates to the performance.

I wanted opinions on the setup. I will run with the open spool until I get a posi. But I wanted to see if anyone had problems with the axle width or any opinions on a better set up for city and freeway driving with this motor based on experience.

RE: transmission and rear end question Hey everyone, I was looking for some advise on my new set up I have planned for my 73. The new motor is at the machine shop and will be a 466ci with 550 hp and 545ft/lbs of torque at 4800 rpm. I found a 9" rear end that is about 3/4" shorter width than...

I have some 460 heads and some other related parts. PM me.

If you print it on some old paper, it looks pretty realistic!
