David have you used a shorty glide in which the gear set was resplined to make it shorter? My shorty glide is a stock case with 1.76 stock gears that have been re-splined... It has the good high gear hub and clutches with a tci pro tree brake. Do you think it will be fine behind this motor? It worked perfect behind the 406 but I have heard mixed opinions on it behind the bbc...
thanks
I've never had one resplined but I do think you'll be fine, I ran 1/76 stock gears behind my small blocks going 5.0's/8.0 @ 1900lbs and never had a problem. The big block wont make a ton of HP and will be fine I think when you start getting closer to the 800hp mark is when you'd need to start thinking of a 1.80 straight cut.
