If the rearend is the original GM 8.2, Pontiac/27 spline pinion, I think your gear choices will be very limited. Richmond and some of the others only list 3.55, 3.90, 4.11. If you happen to have the newer 8.5 corporate rearend, then 3.42's or 3.23's are available but not the 3.55's. In any case I wouldn't recommend anything over the 3.55's.

Gear choice
323- great highway
355- really nice for highway and around town 373- quicker off the line, ok highway I'd get 355's and an 11" convertor. Change that JUNK CAM !! Get an Ultra-Dyne 280-288 h 12+6 $155.00 from me.

I cant use either one of those with my pressed in studs. Max lift i think i can use with stock rebuilt heads .470 and thats pushing it. The summit won over because of the 100$ price for the cam and lifters. And that XE268 is pretty big for a 350. I dont think id have much torque down low with that..

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
