Zac_F71's 71 Demon
Well pretty big update -
Finally getting warmer out, knocking big parts off the list!
New built 727 is done (bolt in sprag, billet servos, 4.2 band lever, alto red clutches, kolene steels, good bands, and cleaned the Turbo Action manual valvebody I had)
Bought all the parts for the rear axle, and finally after 3 weeks of trying traded my car's heater box for a 8.75 742 bare case. Dropped the parts off last Monday, and finished it tonight (4 days). Richmond 4.10 gear set, Dr. Diff 35 spline spool, Strange chromoly 1350 pinion flange w/ billet aluminum joint caps, and ARP ring gear, bearing cap bolts for it as well.
New driveshaft is 1/4" shorter than the stock one, and got that done a few months ago actually haha
Got Dr. Diff 35 spline axles as well, and didn't like the included wheel studs. Ordered stock length 68-70 B body axles w/ screw in wheel studs. Ordered a set of 10 ARP 1/2" screw in wheel studs.
Lastly ordered and installed custom print hood decals - Will update pics next week sometime of them installed on the hood..
Tonight I'm painting the 8.75 housing black, and tomorrow night I will install the new center, and the Dr Diff axles, as well as put a stock valve body in the old trans and drop that out of the car, so I can roll it out and clean the garage this weekend! So til then!
