Default Help-Need Rebuilt Differential w/ 3.70 gear and NO Core Charge for a '73!

I am putting an Overdrive Tranny in my 1973 Corvette and want to put a 3.70 rear end in it. My differential is the original, numbers matching 3.08, so I do not want to give it away. Does anyone know where I can find a Rebuilt 3.70 differential WITHOUT a CORE CHARGE at a reasonable price?

Just an assumption but I would assume that any company that did not have a core charge would just have that amount built into the price :( More then likely you will just have to eat the core charge to keep your original differential.

I can get you one but you will have to pay the core charge. I will work with you on the price. Email me at scott@corvetteworks.us

There was one for sale last week in the C3 classifieds. Don't know if it ever sold. I think the seller was lotahp or lottahp. Good luck. I went from 3.08's to 3.70's, and it made a tremendous difference.

Why not just rebuild the one you have? Rebuild kits run about $120 and new gears $260 ?add $130 for a pair of new side yokes. That way you know what you have.
Good luck,
Gary

:iagree: Just take out the 3.08s and put in 3.70 gears. You will be $$$ ahead doing it this way.
