66 Lemans Rear??
I am looking at picking up a rear out of a 66 Lemans for my dirt car, but i dont know what type of rear it is. I have looked all over the internet and cant find any info about what rears cam in the 66's. I dont know if it is the 8.2 or if it is an 8.5. Or if it is the BOP series rear end. I know it is a ten bolt and that is it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Tom |

It's should be an 8.2. Do you have/know the code to know what ratio?
They offered 7 diff gear sets in 66 and the lemans came 326 or OHC 6. If it's a 6 rear then it could be a 1bbl or a 4bbl So gearing can be 3:08 up to SO 3:90

Ok, i guess it wouldnt be the best rear to get then. As far as ten bolts go, how do they stand up to power? I am in a limited class that requires that i run what came in the car.
