$450 is way too much for me as well, but it depends upon how badly you want it.
If it's a cone type, post-1968 unit, it's not worth it at all. Those are not rebuildable and it's most likely worn out.

The earlier clutch type are rebuildable, but the clutch pack has been NS1 for years. You can try partsvoice to see if one of the vintage parts houses has one in stock, that's how I found mine. P/N for clutch pack repair kit is 2404427.
Good luck.

yea i miss typed i meant 2.76..hmm ok well i found it on the texas arces site. they has have a EGR BLOCK-OFF pate with gasket for $20.

i might look into the 8.25 then since im looking to improve the feather duster a bit. i thought someone said the added wieght from the 8.25 helped with handling. maybe thats was for his car/body...

I said in my post I'm not sure they will swap. I had already looked up the parts in a '67 parts book and saw the different #s.

I'm hoping the #s are wrong or superceded. There have been errors made in manuals, eg too high a torque spec on LA rocker shaft bolts (many have snapped them off from this error) and the Hemi engine code in the '67 Manual is really for a 383.

It's odd that in the '69 parts book, the only SG units and parts are for the 9.75 Dana rear only, nothing for the 7.25 or 8.75. :shrug:
