Now, either differential could be either ratio by<br>this time, but I would check it. If Richard's car now has 3.27 gears, it<br>will be more noisy and get poorer fuel mileage than a 3.55 ratio. Now, if<br>Richard is interested in faster acceleration or stop light drag racing,<br>then the 3.55 is the preferred ratio.<br><div><br></div>In any case, yes, that differential is good. A few hours and a new snout<br>can be in it, ready for another 100k miles.<br><div><br></div>Original email:<br>-----------------<br>From: Bryan Blackwell via Novacc-list novacc-list@corvair.org<br>Date: Tue, 3 Feb 2015 17:07:15 -0500<br>To: ram0672@verizon.net, novacc-list@corvair.org<br>Subject: Re: [NoVa-Corvairs] Jan 31 location & phone<br><div><br></div><br>Sure Bob, we're in Springfield and I am pretty flexible this week, let me<br>know when you're thinking.<br><div><br></div>BTW, don't toss that old diff, it sounds like a likely good core for a<br>rebuild.<br><div><br></div>--Bryan<br><div><br></div>> On Feb 2, 2015, at 8:02 PM, Bob Marshall via Novacc-list<br><novacc-list@corvair.org> wrote:<br>> <br>> After talking with Richard tonight it looks like using Greg's unit is<br>the most logical course of action for us to take to get his 63 back on the<br>road.
