67 chevelle questions?

[black67malibu]

Thanks, I appriciate the info. Would it be wise to swap the 10 bolt out for a 12 bolt or 9". I was talking with a company that will build me a complete 9" with chevy break mounts so I can utalize the setup I already purchased for the 10 bolt. He was gonna include 3.25 rear end gears and a eaton posi for $1400 Im a drag guy so I kinda questioned the gear ratio he recommended. I dont plan on road racing or auto crossing. I just want a weekend warrior at the drag strip and a fun driving a-body. I live in Humboldt county and we dont have a road corse within 5 hours of us. lol

Sit down and make a plan on what and how you would like to build the car.
All depends on what you plan for the car. I know you probably won't hit Thunderhill often but think about your street driving, you want an all around car and not a drag car you have a hard time going down the highway at 70.


3:25 gives you a good range. Match the gears with your power output and RPM range.

Put your money where its going to be effective.
