They did not come in those ratios for the 8.2 They were 2.56, 2.78, 2.93, 3.23. 3.42, 3.64........4.78.
Flynbuick, Those ratios are not in my 1966 Buick Chassis Service Manual. That book lists: 2.56 2.78 2.93 3.08 3.23 3.36 3.55 3.90 4.30 My car has the 8.2 BOP with the 2.78 gears.
I see you live in MN. I have a set of 2.93 out of a 67GS 400 and 3.08 out of a 66 chevy that I have been told will work with a different u joint. They 3.08 have the u joint yoke with it. Where in MN are you? I travel and could save your shipping if these will work. Hows $40 for either set? Thanks
8.2 gears Mine is a 65 Buick Skylark convertable stuffed with a chevy 350, turbo 350. It originally had a 2-bl 300 and the 300 tranny. I'm looing for more low end launch while still keeping it a hyway car. 3.08 where recomended but high 2's will do. No hurry as the car is getting the body restored this summer.
