Default Re: Question on 68-72 Olds type "O" Rear

In the early 70's Dale Smith used to send those things along with Muncie 4 speeds and Bonzi 400 turbos to us by the pallet load 4.66 and a few 5.00. All brand new but each had a label attached saying scrap. I still have a few of those labels in my tool box. The 82 Cutlass they sent us had no vin # and also labeled scrap. ------ He knew we didn't use any of it but couldn't directly give us money so that was his way of helping us finance our racing. Gave that stuff away compared to todays prices. All aluminum W27 O type 12 bolts bring $ 8000 plus to the right guy these days. Never sent us any of those, they came cast iron with a W27 cover on them. Kinda glad he didn't if you get my drift.
