401?
Oh, and I forgot to tell you. Don't be thinking that the only way to blow a rear end is to be stopped and popping the clutch. I blew the GoPak posi out of my 360 AMX at around 70 shifting into third gear. Broke the gear carrier in half and split the housing. Luckily, I didn't slip in my own oil. That's an indicator of how weak the AMC rear is. I have also broken the yoke off of the rear a couple of times. And there is NO aftermarket or stronger parts to fix these problems. I was overjoyed to find that a Mustang (71 in this case) rear drops RITE in to the Javs & AMXs. Only change was bigger U bolts and an adapter u-joint.
Do us all a favor, put the unstroked 401/T-10/Ford 9" in it. The 401s need no additional torque. Again, I GUARANTEE you that you will be WAY WAY better off. Or else leave it stock and find a Jav or AMX to hot rod.....Dave
