My recently purchased '67 SS seems to be a rather highly optioned car, but when looking at the axle housing the numbers/letters are very hard to read. It's likely an open differential since the car is an automatic (TH400) and only the L35 396 is in there, so I'm not holding my breath. From what I think the markings look like it may only be a 2.73:1, because it looks like "CZ" is stamped on the axle housing but it's very hard to read. So, I got to wondering what rear end would come in a 1967 SS 396 Chevelle when the buyer didn't specify a rear end ratio?? Of course, I spec'd a 4.10:1 Posi back in 1967 when I orderd my L78 Chevelle SS (Code "ZZ"). Wish I still had it!
Any ideas?
Thanks,
John
