BTW,

An original Spyder would have 3.55 gears, and a typical Monza had 3.27
gears for a four speed. Now, either differential could be either ratio by
this time, but I would check it. If Richard's car now has 3.27 gears, it
will be more  noisy and get poorer fuel mileage than a 3.55 ratio. Now, if
Richard is interested in faster acceleration or stop light drag racing,
then the 3.55 is the preferred ratio.

In any case, yes, that differential is good. A few hours and a new snout
can be in it, ready for another 100k miles.

Sure Bob, we're in Springfield and I am pretty flexible this week, let me
know when you're thinking.

BTW, don't toss that old diff, it sounds like a likely good core for a
rebuild.

get your pilot bushing tool since you are out of town this weekend?  I
could meet you and pick it up.
