Chevelle updates

[VintageMusclecar]

THANK YOU STEVE!!! I've been looking for that exact info and haven't been able to find it! Mine's a `95 2500 series gas, and that's exactly what mine's done--wears out the front brakes and barely uses the rears.

Since I'm not registered on that forum, I can't get the .pdf to open. Is that forum a quick register site or do I have to wait for admin approval? Is there any way you could send me the .pdf file?

As far as getting the Chevelle back on the road, I have another 12 bolt ready to go under the car. It's a Nov. `66 dated unit (the car is a December `66 build) I bought from our own Scuncio a couple of years ago and had built with a rebuilt posi, a 3.73 gear (the car currently has a 4.56 which I originally installed with the intent to test back-to-back against a 3.73), a Mark Williams billet drivers side carrier cap and Strange street/strip axles (with c clips). Obviously I'm not going to cut the `66 rear for c clip eliminators, but the current 12 bolt is a garden variety `68 unit, so repairing it and upgrading to c clip eliminators is an option.

I need to crunch the numbers and see what it'll take to "bullet proof" the `68 rear end--billet cap, c clip eliminators, top shelf differential and race axles vs. going to a Strange bolt-in S60 Dana rear end. I really don't want to go with a 9" Ford, but if worse comes to worst it will be a consideration.

At least I can get the car back on the road quickly for now, will just have to forego trying any super-hard launches.
