the 6.2s are pretty reliable but not like a 616.

if running a 410 rear end gear they tended to break out main bearing webs. 373 or higher ratio is fine. assuming running a turbo 400 thee speed. with od it is another matter.

the od trannys tended to be a bit weak for towing. for that you want a 373 rear and the turbo 400 tranny.

i had three of them.
