74 Duster 408 Daily Drivability with 3.73 Gears Vs Stock 3.21 Question.

TimS said

Yes. My ultimate interest is going back to the original drivetrain and most likely sell the 408. To each his own. All thru my darn near 50 years of restoring Mopars, my enjoyment is centered around original cars. I still want to drive the Duster while I'm working on the #'s 360.

I was just teasing, and I'm actually glad there are those restoring these gems to original.

I'm pretty sure my ongoing quest for higher performance, comfort and convenience is some kind of a syndrome or disorder I caught when I rode in the back of what is my now my first car at 10 years old. I remember being pinned to the back seat while accelerating onto the highway and looking at the texture on the vinyl on the seat-back.

FWIW: My preferred style is stock appearing inside and out with bigger back tires and the enhanced sound modified motors produce, and under the hood is open for creative interpretation.
