My 47 coupe had 3.78 gears in it and i went to 3.54. The engine was still screaminmg at 70 mph. I would think about using a old Bronko 9" and mount it under the old Ford. It will have the same bolt patern as the wheels you are using now. U could use a ford pichup trans shaft and rear mount with pickup yoke and have a open drive line and run 3.25 gears. Marv
