Hi everyone:
I have just finished a conversion on my '65 Impala Convertable from as 283 Powerglide to a 409 four speed....quite a project, but I'm really happy with the results and we have just put the car back on the road. My question is: what rear end ration did Chevy typically run with the 409/four speed combination? I am running about 3400 rpm at 70 mph, which is much lower than I need. Can anyone help me out.
Also, I am looking for a flywheel inspection plate for the '621 bell housing I used for the project.
Thanks from a new member.
Roy
