318 LA roller block questions

oops.. replied while you were replying.. just 318 for now, 390 next year. as i said in the first reply. I haven't decided on tires yet. And i will be upgrading the rear end if i find a deal on a pig.. guys wanting 800+ for a rebuilding center section just burns my ***.. This is the first car i have done in 20 years and back then it seemed like parts were every where for next to nothing :) Eventually probably just 3.55's though. i have run 3.91's and 4.56's in the past and it just gets old after awhile on the street
The new prices are due to the global times that is loaded with BS.
Doctor Diff gets approximately $1500 for a new, that’s everything new, housing included 8-3/4 third member.

It is what it is and if you have been out of the game for 20 years since your last rebuild, you’re gonna hate the new pricing. Get over it quick! Otherwise you might start thinking twice and/or change your plans. That could lead to very unhappy results. Don’t settle, stay the course and just accept that this is the way it is now. That’s all there is to it. You can never go back.

The days when I would get cars for the asking or pay $50-$100 are gone gone gone and will never return.
