7 1/4 rearend

The poor little 7-1/4 breaks behind slant sixes if you get one wheel spinning. (like on a little bit of ice around a corner and then it grabs some traction) I've gone through 7 of the one leggers on various cars. I'd just replace a 7-1/4 with a 7-/14 because they were $20 at the local yard. I still have a 7-1/4 sure grip that is intact in one of my Barracudas but I would really recommend that you pull that 7-1/4 and sell it to someone restoring a slant six car and upgrade to at least an 8-1/4 with your combo. The sorry 7-1/4s are no match for any sort of performance improvements.
