So is a 300C and they run a 2.82 rear gear. To be fair the NAG1 trans has a 3.59 1st gear for a starting line ratio of 10ish:1. With a 727 you would have to run a 4.10 to be equivalent, no bueno on the freeway. A 518/46RH will give you a similar 10:1 overall 1st and a 2.829 overall in OD...

AMS was a typo then? Kevin

Those Holley 2 barrel carbs were junk from new. If I was going to put any effort into rebuilding a carb and fuel economy was a concern, I'd be doing a Thermoquad and changing the intake manifold accordingly. Driven with fuel economy in mind, they will always do better than a 2 barrel and really...

I forget what car I pirated the one for my 66 from but it mounted flat to the rad support. I buzzed a couple of self tappers through the mounting tabs where it sat nice on my rad support, front side if memory serves and used a parts store universal washer pump. Kevin

Budd discs were done in 68, at least on a Cbody. 69 to early 72 use the smaller wheel bearing and if original, 2 piece rotors. Late 72 and 73 use the bigger bearings and unicast 1 piece rotors. They apparently make unicast rotors for the 2 piece application now that are much more reasonably...

I would start with bigger T-bars and a bigger front sway bar first and see how it behaves. It might not need a rear bar depending on how you drive it and if you do need a rear bar you have to be careful with sizing because it can really make the car tail happy. Kevin

You do realize that the reason you pay more (usually a lot more) for the lifetime guarantee is you are paying for the replacement up front. Kevin

That's when you push on that lever. Pfffft and it's gone... lol Kevin

Not pulling the trans apart to inspect the sprag after a driveline/diff failure from a launch is no no. The trans can seem to operate OK with a wounded sprag but could let go the next time you launch it. Kevin

Gas wrench. Heat the nuts red hot and disassemble. Kevin

A lot of people mistakenly think those drum failures are horsepower related when in fact all it takes to blow one up is an engine's ability to free rev past 5000 RPM. A stone stock /6 is capable of that. A couple of things you should NEVER do with a 727 are big waterbox burnouts at a dragstrip...

Check the tail shaft housing to make sure you didn't break it. Park SHOULD have engaged once you shut the engine off. If it's making noise after you restart it in Park, check to see if the output shaft is turning. If it isn't, I would suspect you have taken out the overrunning clutch or sprag...

I bought my 66 New Yorker in Vancouver BC and drove it 2800 miles home after a shake down trip to Canadian Tire for 4 tires and a new battery. Just send it. Lol. Kevin

400 has the same stroke as a 383. A 4.25" stroke 440Source kit will help it pull those 2.76's with some authority. LOVE the color. In 1976 I had a 73 Newport Custom 2 door hard top in Regal Blue. Kevin

If it has a 727 in it now, the original driveshaft will be good to go. BB and Small Block 727 are the same dimensions. If it turns out to have a 904, you'll have either shorten the driveshaft and change the slip yoke or find a C body 727 specific shaft. As to the question, is it worth it...

I watched a few documentaries about it before I saw it. The movie seemed to track reasonably true to the facts and I enjoyed it immensely. An absolutely travesty what they did to Ken Miles. Kevin

I had 275's on my 66 on 15x8 with 4" BS. They were close on the skirt but no trimming required. Lots of room on the inside so 4.5 BS would have been perfect. Kevin
