RE:9 3/4 is a 9 3/8

Yes, the 9 & 3/8 ring gear came out with mega boats of the late sixties, early seventies and carried through the seventies, i.e., Linclons, FULL size Fords/Mercs like the big beautiful '75 Country Squire. I really enjoy keeping these cars for storage facilities. All the while also serving as parts donors.

Shoe's suggestion of using the differential to housing gasket is important. I also have attempted to run the best silicone sealer by Permatex and it doesn't take long for a little drip to start showing itself on the shop floor.

You're gonna like the 3.25s a lot. Very nice all around gear ratio for a mild 390.
