Hey all,
The car I am working on my restoration project swap with has turned up a nice surprise in it's rear end. Turns out the donated shell has a 3:53 posi rear end with about 120,000kms on it. The rear end in the original car that I was transplanting over has a 3:73 non-posi rear end in it.
I am pretty certain that I am going with the posi-rear end and taller gears, but I want to hear the brickboards thoughts on posi-rear ends and any experiences?

Cheers,
Phil


PS I finally have some more pictures of the torn down old car, and the new shell that it is going into, I will updated my website in the coming days, and will post when it's ready to go!
