Thanks again for the help. I will not go with the 3:08 rear ratios. The information that I have recieved here has been outstanding, because it comes from people that have alot of experience. I will start with the 5:56 and then change out later if I need to. I have been using the 6 volt starter with the 12 volt system and it works great. I did use a 12 volt starter with my coupe out of a 56 235 engine and it worked with no problems. My plan is to use a 6 volt starter because I think it works better then the 12 volt starter, spins faster and starts the car up well.
I am glad to know that my fly wheel and pressure plate will work, I was hoping I would not have to change them. I don't want to use a 11 inch flywheel unless I have no other choice, and it sounds like I don't need to. I read somewhere that that is what was needeed. The only disk I have seen so far like I said is 9 inches and the disk area is only 1 inch wide, I think the original is about 2 inches wide. I will plan on using the original set up and find a disk that is closest to the original that I can. The only thing that I will have to do next is the drive shaft and I figured I will have to have a shop make me one, unless any one has any ideas. I don't have measurements yet not until I place the rearend in, get my engine from the shop and mount it in place to measure it. Thanks again for the help slvigil53
