Re: NOS clutch Sure Grip for sale

Hi Gary,

You may remember we have exchanged emails occasionally in the past.

I have some questions I thought you might help me with as you seem pretty 
knowledgeable about rear ends (and all things Mopar it seems)

I have 1965 Belvedere Wagon.  It has the 741 rearend.  One-legged and I think 
its the 2.94 or maybe the 2.76 (its pretty high).

My eventual plan is to replace the 360 that is now in the car (car was 
originally a 273) with a 440 (apart) that came with the car when I bought it.  I 
want to make the car a comfortable cruiser (with air, so Mama is willing to 
travel in it) but also take it to the drags once in awhile. (Sac Raceway). 
Would like to have the car in the 14's.

I would like to have a suregrip rear end with around 3.73 or so (heavy car so 
would like a low rear end to pull it out of the hole--course maybe that's not 
best either with the way fuel is going..)

The after market seems to have given up on 741's as all the ads are for 742's 
and 489's.  As I understand it I can only put 741 "stuff" into my 741 so to do 
anything else would mean a whole new rear end.  Not that that is not a 
consideration, but then we are starting to get into more money.  I should also 
note, I'm not an experienced mechanic.  Probably will have to recruit some help 
to do rear end things.

So, if you care to, I would be very interested in your thoughts and 
recommendations.

Thanks in Advance,

Take Care,
