Did you just have a 3.36 rear end lying around?  Where do you find these obsolete parts?  This stuff is getting scarce.   :o

If I had a chance to isolate me and my bus in Mojave Valley I'd be all over that like white on rice.  I've never met him but already I know that Gary is a smart guy.

3.36 will give 60mph at 1629, 65 at 1765, 70 at 1901, 75 at 2036. And if you want really good mileage 55mph at 1493. Good Luck, TomC
