need rear end advice
Ok, here's the deal, I've got a stock GM 12-bolt rear end with 3.73 gears bolted to an open differential. I'm adding a 496 stroker to the truck for go-go power. I need advice on what to run for gears, and also for a differential, whether it be a limited slip unit, locker, or spool. I'll be pushin close to if not over 600 horse/torque. The tranny is a TH400. Tires will be around 29-31 inches, 2wd. What are people's recommendations? It'll be mainly a street truck also. I also need to keep the cost down if it can be helped. So please, give me all yere advice. Thanks again.
Oh, the truck is a '69 shortbox, stepside with rear coil springs
