Default Re: 12 Bolt Gears

I had someone who frequents this site call me last night and tell me that these definitely aren't Corvette gears.

Well, he's correct, 63-79 Corvettes have a 10 bolt, 8.5" ring gear and a passenger cars have a 12 bolt, 8-7/8", which is what my gears are.

So this is good news as I <span style="font-style: italic">might</span> install them in the car sometime.....just for fun! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]

Thanks again for the replies and especially the phone call, Kurt
