hey guys,
After being at the track today I finally got the kick in the butt ot finish my 67. Well before I race next weekend I would like to get the rear end done up with some new parts. Let me give you some background. This is a 75/25 % street/strip car. I want to cruise around town and 55-60 will be the highest mph on the street this will see. I run 245-60d15 Hoosier quick times at the track with shelby underriders. I want a car I have no problem jumping in and driving but I need some decent short times at the track. I was thinking 3.80 gears (I could be convinced of 3.55's), a Detroit Truetrac and a complete overhaul kit all in my 8 inch rear. Please let me know my noon Sunday so I can ordering the parts to get here by midweek so they can be installed for next Saturday!

What tranny you running, what motor do you have, how much HP, whar rear end do you currently have? A little more info would go a long way.

And by the way, good luck.
