·I am about to change my gear ratio and I figure while I'm in there, perhaps its time to change to a locking differential. What effect, if any, will be noticed?
My car is a '66 coupe that has a recently rebuilt 289 motor (heads surfaced, valves ported, 1.6 exhaust, 1.94 intake, roller rockers, cylinders bored .03, 3/4 race cam, 4bl Edelbrock with intake, GT exhaust manifolds and various other things ...). It has a C4 transmission and grandma's rear end (factory 8" with 2.8 gear ratio and conventional differential). I will be putting in 3.8:1 gear ratio. The wheels are factory but will soon be 15x7 Torq D's.
Appreciate your opinions.
