L48 Gear ratio w/ P-Glide
« on: July 04, 2015, 06:59:52 PM »
What was the most common ratio provided in an 295/350 with a 2 speed powerglide? Finally found the "shell" of a correct rear end  with radius rod bracket and panning rebuild. Based on exisitng code it was originally a 356, but somewhere along the line I heard a 331 was most common? Any data to support?

Thanks,

Mike S

If "common" you mean "standard", per the Camaro Illustrated Facts Features and Specifications Manual, Jan. 1967
I'm assuming you are asking for 1967.
L48 w/Powerglide has the following ratios:
Standard: 3:07
Economy: 2:73
Performance: 3:31
Special: 3:55 & 3:73 (both w/o AC)

Thanks Mike. I'm not aware of the manual you reference, but would like to find it.

I had that since around 1980ish. I don't know if it is in print anymore.
