My wife teaches in south sac, close to Burbank!

Yeah, I'm pretty excited about the car. She runs and drives, but has a rod knock, so rebuild or new crate is around the corner.

 

[Fury Man Van]

Sweet Rag Top what does she have for an engine?

 

[CaliFury]

383 4v factory original motor and 3spd TF.

 

[Fury Man Van]

Cool combination, do you know what gears are in the rearend ?

 

[CaliFury]

I do not. Just purchased about 4mo ago. Just saw a thread on of where to look for the sure-grip tag. So I will look for that once it stops raining here.

Also Is there a code on the axle housing somewhere that may give me a clue to the axle rario?

 

[Fury Man Van]

Sometimes there is a metal tag attached to the carrier bolts that will tell you. You can jack the one wheel up put it in neutral, turn the tire one revolution and count the numbers times the drive shaft turns and the math will tell you but I don't know the formula

 

[CaliFury]

Sounds good thanks for the info!
