    10 bolt rear end

    in Drivetrain Tech

    Posted

    Well cbolt I appreciate the input!!!

     

    I for sure will be cruising to different meet spots, and once in a while take it up north with me, so I think with all your info, 3.55 will probably give me the fun I want but also the ability to hit the highway an cruise!

     

    My next question, is who do you guys buy through for these parts, I am not to sure of a place in Ontario that deals with diff gears. I will do my research for sure though!

     

    Thanks a lot

    10 bolt rear end

    So it looks like I have the 8.2 inch 10 bolt with the 11 inch cover. The motor I am running is a big block 396 bored 30 over (402) with a th350.

     

    The engine has a very mild cam and hats about all that's done to it. Other then just up grading push rods, lifters and rockers.

     

    What are the options for using this rear end housing but different gear? Who has this style, what's your drive line setup and gear setup?

     

    Thanks everyone

    No idea what gears are in it now, how could I tell?

     

    To be honest I am not sure what gears, I always hear 3.73's are usually a good gear

     

    In terms of bop or Chevy, how do I find that out?

     

    The motor I am running, is a 396 bored 30 over, so 402, as far as rpm, I'll have to wait for it to get on the engine Dyno.

     

    I need some education, what is a 2 series gear?

     

    Thanks mike

    So I know this question has been asked I am sure.

     

    I have the 10 bolt open diff I'm my 70 MC, and what I am wondering, is there anything out there that will give me posi with still keeping a good street/highway car.

     

    Or am I into finding another diff?

     

    Parts here in Ontario are somewhat difficult to come by and shipping/buying from the states right now is sort of pricey.

     

    Any ideas or info is much appreciated!

     

    Thanks, Chris

    Proportioning valve location

    in Brakes and Suspension Tech

    Posted

    So I am wondering what some of you have done with the location of proportioning valve. I am not using the original valve, I have a newer style. Like the one in the picture if it shows up. I was wondering if anyone has used it and if so, where did you mount it? I was told that on the frame rail where the stock one mounted was a little to close to the exhaust manifold with a big block shoe horned in. Any ideas? Pictures?

     

    Thanks everyone

    Shifter pieces

    in Drivetrain Tech

    Posted

    Hey everyone. I know this has probably been posted but I went through over 10 pages and didn't see anything or missed it.

     

    My question is, I have a few floor shifters, a th350 trans, and I need to make those two work together. What is involved? Which cable, brackets etc.

     

    I only have a manual console not the auto but I'll worry about that after!

     

    Any help would be great!

     

    Thanks Chris.

    TH400 kick down linkage?

    in Drivetrain Tech

    Posted

    hey guys, My names chris, an i have a 1970 monte carlo with a 350 small block an a TH400 backing it up. My question is with the kick down linkage. from the day i bought the car, the kickdown linkage has never connectid. With installing the TH400, i still cannot connect it. It seems like the cable is to short, i have the one bracket at the back of the intake, but it doesnt reach to the carb and there isnt even a spot on the carb to put it. its a reg. holly 600CFM, any ideas or where i can get an adptor to make it fit right?

     

    thanks chris
