How hard/expensive is it to switch out gearing on an A-body?

i don't know.. my car has the same green bearing in it since the mid 90's. car was used as a daily driver for years then beat the hell out of on the street and drag strip, then it was set up for corners and driven a ton more like that.. green bearings still going strong.

just making a point that if it's an "either or" proposition,an oe tapered roller bearing is superior and will never fail if maintained.
