Back in 1967 I wanted to order a 427 Fairlane and was told it would take a year to get one why don't you order a Galaxie so I ordered a 427 Custom with the plan of racing it. When it came in (it was red) it had a 9 3/8 ring gear and nothing was available. I blew the engine up at 872 miles. The warranty was 90 days or 1200 miles. They fixed it under warranty and we sold it. I wish I had it today. What a rare car.

Never knew that Ford used the 9 3/8 rear on the '67 427ci full sized cars. Believe the steepest gear I've seen in those is 3.25.
