I would recommend the 3.73 gear in the rear. Gives you more options for future upgrades.

For a heavy convertible, a 3.23 isn't quite enough gear for the results you want. Go with the 3.55. I have both a '70 GTO convertible with a 3.23 and a '69 hardtop with a 3.55 and the 3.55 geared car is the one that feels strong.

I do have one question that has not been asked. What size tire are you going to run in the rear?

I dunno to be honest. Got a set of vintage ansen sprints in the 15x8 flavor from my nieghbor about a week ago for 30 bucks so i havent gotten that far. Probably a 255 or 275 55 series tire.

Well maybe once i get some worthwhile heads with some screw in studs and the right valvesprings i can step it up to that one. I was lead to beleive it was big but maybe they were only talking about for my application. Thanks for the schoolin.
 Totally off topic but if anybody using camquest from compcams..Would an edelbrock performer count as a standard flow or high flow dual plane maifold where maxflow is the highest? Last edited by 70lemansport; 10-08-2008 at 10:29 PM. |

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.
