I ran a Jerico stick too- I will be running a Turbo 350 in my 65 with the same 396/325HP combo- can I expect breakage because of the tranny? Just wondering-

At 4400 lbs, I have broken ring and pinions and a few other small things. Not the parts breaker you would think. 350-255 with turbo 350. I ran a 325-396 4-door big cay years ago and it was not bad on parts.
