Wanted: 3.23 to 3.55 posi for 1968 GTO
I presently have a '68 GTO with a 400 and a 2.76 posi 10 bolt (posi not always works). I am in the process of building a fairly strong 455 and I want to upgrade to either a 3.23-3.55 gear. I was told by a drive train rebuilder the parts to rebuild the rear are no longer available and the adapter to go from a 2- series rear end to a 3- series rear end makes the already weak (he said the 8.2 rear end is one of the weakest GM makes) even weaker.
Any ideas? Is this guy right? Anyone have a good posi they want to sell? I could do a partial trade for parts (I have bare cast #13 heads, armasteel crank, new-in-box (NIB)Autometer 6809, NIB Torquer II, nice original Torquer, 850 Holley DP, etc. to trade or I can buy outright.
Thanks for the use of this great site.
Tony
