Re: Strange 12 bolt 9"
Going on 19 years now with my Strange unit. No hint of wear with only one gear change. Always used synthetic gear lube.
As for ET reduction, can't really say because the 12 bolt drop out unit is the only unit I have used. Has been in 2 cars with total weight of 2,625 in SST Chevy II with a 14 x 32 Hoosier tire and 2,125 in SG '34 Chevy with a 16 x 33 Hoosier tire. I would say it has been an excellent unit. It was $2,200 complete with spool purchased in '93. Mike Last edited by ChevyII; 08-28-2012 at 08:08 PM. |

Re: Strange 12 bolt 9"
Yeah, Alex we went from a 4.88 GM gear set to a 4.56. These gear sets are pretty popular combos unlike your tall 6.14 set.
Come to think of it, I have never heard of the 6.14 combo but it must be a FORD and what the hell do I know about FORD. Squat... Mike |
