Jerry,

Maybe get a gear set & have it installed. Summit has Richmond ring & pinion sets for $269, but you have to get a 4 series carrier. Should be some used ones available somewhere with the carrier.

Jerry
I can help you if you supply some more info on what you want and how you plan on using the car? Keep in mind as with anything there are prices that are based on the level of work and the job required.
You have to ask what is beign offered for a job before you can make a fair assesement of the quote.
I see you have a '77 from your profile so that will have an iron unit in it and can be built several ways.
