have a 66 its a one Leger right now staying with stock motor should i just have my stock rear end built or is there a cheaper way to go will a rear end out of a fox body work is there a lot of mods that needs to be done only having one tire smoking just sucks

[460brevill]

what size rear is in your car now?

[Vinyl66]

i think im going to throw 4.11's on my 66 w/ stock c4 tranny

If you have sucky tires, you could have 2 smoking.

if you are using a 8" rear end and you plan to build no more than 350 horses.
I would just rebuild what you have unless you a free 8.8 rear end laying around.
This is one of many ways to fix your current rear end.



Good Luck

If you have a overdrive system, Sounds like no problem.

But if not???

My 3:55 Gears are turn my motor over at 65 MPH @ 4000 RPMs

[gordon norris]

not sure what size is in there now just really wanted to koow if a rear end out of a fox body 8.8 would fit

[MustangOne]

8.8 will not just bolt in. You would have to fix the mount from your 8" to the 8.8"

But anything can be done. "if you have the experience or Money to do it"

We put a total IRS from a 2003 Cobra into a 1967 Fastback.

Like I said Anything can be done.

so if i build up my 8 inch how much money i am i looking at about 1000 and what about going with a 9 inch is it worth the extra money might put a intake heads and carb on the stock motor but not much Else so a 8 inch with good parts should be just fine and where would be a good place to get the parts

[MustangOne]

If you are just running a 289/302 you dont need to go to a 9" Rear end.

A Posi is about $400, the rebuild kit is about $120.

I just put a Edelbrock RPM Perfomer intake.

600 CFM holly carb.

Get the parts a Jegs.com Great Price , Great Return policy

[460brevill]

i put a lock right unit #1810-lr in my 66 with a 4-11 gear.under 600.00

[brummettx]

I was just curious as to how you could tell the difference between a 8 and 9 inch rear end? Cause I'm not sure what's in my 67 sorry to change the subject sort of...
