Will 1984 - 1995 corvette posi rear end hold up to 700 HP?
Or can you get parts to beef a corvette rear end?
I have heard that years ago street racers used to put a Ford Couger rear end in Chevy because the individual axles made it better for handling, so I thought I would check into using a corvette rear end assembly in a rat rod with 700 HP.
Ford 9 inch rear ends are used a lot for this type of applications.
In a light car like that, it will hold up, unless you run slicks.
Do you have any idea how much work it will be putting that rear end in? With independent suspension!
- My 2000 Ford Taurus won't shift into fourth gear is it ok on a 700 mile round trip drive? I have a 2000 ford Taurus and it doesn't shift into fourth gear anymore. Its been that way for 2 years. It runs fine just doesn't shift into fourth gear and the transmission light does come on after a while of driving it. I was wondering if it would be ok to take it on a 700 mile round trip drive? I know its not good for it I just need to know if I'm going to be stranded on the highway somewhere because my trans went out.

- 2007 Ford Ranger rear end jerks on acceleration after a downshift at about 20 MPH? 2007 Ford Ranger 28,000 miles, 8.8" Rear axle 3:18 gears auto trans. Every now and then when I accelerate from around 20 MPH and the truck downshifts there's a small jerk in the rear end a second after the downshift. Is this normal? I just bought the truck and never had RWD before. If someone knows what the problem is that would be awesome!
