12 bolt gear set treatment options

[Tom Meyer]

Put a 12 bolt in my car in 87 283 220 hp glide with a brake 3200 +, 6.14 high 1.40s 60s. Raced hard for 10 years, brackets, combos, div, and natl events. All with the same set of gears, thousands of runs, lucky maybe. Made sure from the start with steel caps, rear cover girdle and made sure the set up was dead on. Put the second set in ran them till 09 when semi retired. Working on a new housing for the car, will try the 6.00 ratio with rem finished and cyro but like everything else today the stuff is just not made the same. Good luck on the build, looks great and have fun. Only rear that has less drag from gear angle is a dana 60 but they are heavy [un sprung weight]. Tom
