I am in the market for new rear end gears for my 70 Nova that now has a 2.56
(stock). I plan to get a 3.08 posi since I have a 700-R4 and the rpm's are
only 1,450 @ 60 mph now and the 3.08 should raise that to 1,740. This car has
a RamJet 350/350 and it's my highway cruiser.
Any recommendation

what I had to do because I found my self mistyping the address from time to
time.

What I want to do is put disc brakes on my 65 and I was told that B-body
parts work. I just happen to have an 87 Caprice(old cop car) The problem with
using its parts is the bolt pattern is different. So that leads to the second
