Short Rearend/Big Slicks

Re: slicks

just curious what are your 60's....jesse

Don't laugh, I spun the peg leg the first 1/8
3.16
2.8
2.3
2.4
2.53
were my last 5 runs. That's what inspired me to hunt down the G.N. 8.5 ring limited differential I have now.

David, My traction should be taken care of with the Grand National rear end and some decent drag radials. I know that. What I'm really curious about is stuffing tubs in it a few years down the road.
Nice cutlass by the way

But if you have some good nuts you should look into other aspects like upper and lower control arms,air bag,and a sway bar...

Great advice, in fact while the rear end was out I had both the upper and lower boxed with 3/16 steel to stiffen them up. I have bags and I have considered sway bars but I don't know too much about them. Are they a bolt on? Where, the lower control arms? Some info to educate me would be great, thanks.

The way to go is the one that bolts the the rearend housing,not the factory on that goes to the lower control arms shotgun pulled one from a F-Body that worked sweet.
