A 2.88 will have a painfully slow takeoff with a manual.
A 3.07 is a better match. |

i did a 300d na with the 307 rear end and although it got 30 mph hiway it was too high for around town.
i recommend no higher ratio than the 346 used in the 300d na for a stick conversion. the higher ratios would be fine with an automatic but taking off is just to hard on the clutch. tom w

what ratio is the diff on a 82 SD (auto naturally)..
what about a 190 2.6 (93) (auto)? and did they do anything special to the sportline ones when it comes to the diff?
