Alan,
Nice Comet. Putting together some detailed specs. for the D-Dart. Will post later. As for the 7 1/4" 1965 rears. Gear ratio's 2.76....2.93....3.23....
3.55....3.91... for the Hotchkiss Drive. Not sure if anyone made steeper gears...But, the 1965 Cuda "Goldfish" of the Hamilton Motors "Golden
Commando's" ran In F/Stock in 1965 (12.50 - 13.99 wt/hp break). Won
the F/S class at the 65' NHRA Nationals. And, held the F/S record with a
13.44 @ 103.68. Ran 4.89 gears, in an 8 3/4" Sure-Grip/Posi. They went AHRA in 66'.
