Smile gears
Factory Ford gears are very quiet. I have a 3.00 ring & pinion you are welcome to have free if you want them, they are factory Ford, I bought a 9" 3rd member with a 31 spline traction loc posi and the gears are still in it, I don't plan on using them, if you want them I will tear it down. It was 1/2 price weekend at our local Pick N Pull wrecking yard, so I grab up extra rear ends then. I run the super tall 2.47 factory Ford gears in mine.

Thx for the offer. I'm going to see what size bearings I have as there are many variations of the 9" gears around.

Ordered some Superior 3.25 gears... they should be shipping out next week.
Goal is to have the 9" back in the Chevelle shortly thereafter.

I wonder how much punishment a 35 spline Detroit Locker 9" can take launching with a manual transmission and McLeod street twin disc clutch on slicks?
My goal is 800rwhp with this turbo on e85....

I'll bet the clutch will give up before the rearend does.
