I have a 32 Ford roadster and I need a little lower gear ratio for better acceleration. Here's some details, about 2500# weight, with a Chevy 350 engine with 350 trans, 8" Ford rear end with a 2.70-78 (?) ratio, and 30" tall rear tires. I'm thinking of a 3.80 to 4.10 ratio for street/highway driving with those tall rear tires.

Question, what ratio should I use?

Question, what kind of limited slip unit should I use in the 8"?

Question, how hard is it correctly set up the R&P pattern? Should I farm this job out?

Thanks, John Palmer
