So I have this pipe dream of putting a rather large 385 series big block into my 73 rag. I've already secured a 429 Block and a C6 Trans but my concern is will it be necessary to replace the rear diff from the current 8 inch 6 cylinder rear to a 9 inch?
What is the weak point on the smaller rear (axles, pinion gears), are there limitations with gear ratios?
I would rather spend the money on the motor instead of the rear
