    8 3/4 identification. 391 gears

    i'm not sure entirely what you're asking but here's a measurement chart for the rear end and axles https://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/threads/an-accurate-8-3-4-rear-axle-width-list.365494/ if you're asking how to ID the gears you can pop the carrier out and it'll be stamped on the ring gear...

    Jim Slusser Buyer Beware

    this whole thread is a bigger tease than Francesca DeLongpre in short shorts and bikini tops that one summer between junior and senior year when it was hotter than anybody could remember. lemme tells ya, now there was a gal that could haul some heads on a airport trolley!

    Vanguard Motorsales

    let me rephrase: hot rod joe couldn't build it for that because he's paying shops to do all the work. i could absolutely build it for that, it's just there wouldn't be much meat left on the bone when it came time to flip it.

    Vanguard Motorsales

    original slant car, so there's that. but given where the market is it don't find this totally out of line. there's a bunch of stuff that i don't particularly care for, and some stuff that's not my style, and a little bit of the obvious liberties taken/good enough/that'll work. however, it's...

    Another bad weekend

    this is fantastic news! keep on trucking amigo, you'll be there before you know it. and make sure to show some gratitude to your care takers-- muffin basket, timmy's donuts & coffee, cured meats and a stack of expired gift cards for complimentary car washes.

    I hate BMW’s

    fair enough. i love, love, love their little 2T bikes (and *some* of their scooters) but they are a legit pain in all nine assholes to work on and get parts for. the RS125 is a stupidly fun bike and begs to be ridden in a ridiculous manner.

    I hate BMW’s

    i love how DTM goes from: "what are the benefits to leasing a car" to knowing all about it in the span of six posts and several hours. this is why people clown on you all the time. i'm sure the DMV knows all about leasing a car. jfc. *makes wanking motion*

    I hate BMW’s

    hahaha! nah, it's a E3 Bavaria. So it's like the big brother to 2002, or the four door saloon version of a E9 (don't worry it's getting an LS swap)

    Great weekend at Spring Fling

    i had two a-body 8.75's at the swap, one was ready to bolt in complete with shock plates the other needed brakes. didn't sell either. lots of questions, but the interest seemed to be more what they were worth as each person would say: oh, i have half a dozen at home. (probably right next to...

    Jim, we were waiting in line to get into the swap sat. morning when you came cruising by and my brother pointed out your car and remarked how good it looked rolling down the street. i told him that he needed to check it out and later after we were situated he went to go have a peek. on returning...

    Differences in 318 block.

    why not just ask the machine shop? i mean, they're going to bore it and hone it so they'd know what it'll clean up at.

    "I was told"

    usually it's some of A and lot of C in certain cases but mostly B if i use "i was told" i'll follow it up with a qualifier: i was told this [blank] fits or came from a [blank], i'm not 100% sure but the part number correlates to this span of years so it may be correct for what you're trying to do.

    Been awhile

    *wearily* you... you missed the "best cam for a 318" discussions and if you can make horsepower with a 318 fear not, there will be another, likely by the end of the week. the battles continue as the war is not yet won...

    Anyone know Chris Romard London Ontario?

    not all of us that sell parts online are scumbags, dan. some of us actually make a bit of a living at it and have a reputation to protect. i for one take pride in providing good used parts, making connections, helping people out and keeping cars on the road.

    Anyone know Chris Romard London Ontario?

    that's because people are more apt to post up about the bad vs the good. i forget the numbers right off the top of my head, but it's something like people are 70% more likely to leave bad reviews than good. it's partially due to a bad experience triggering an emotional response. negative...

    the mounting width to the chassis is incorrect. stock wise, only 67~76 a-body will work.
