Strange Engineering...Anyone deal with them?

I saw their as in CHP for GM rears, gears and axles. Are they real expensive? I may give them a call to check pricing. I would like to find a complete disc to disc setup with some decent gears. The stock 2.77's that I have now are no fun to drive!!!!

pulling valve covers or manifolds.
Also with stock 2.77 rear end!!!

i've used their stuff in the past. they make good parts. they've been around a long time. as far as cost go, you get what you pay for. i like richmond gears myself.

That's one of the grandfathers of the hot-rodding business. They are a pro racer supply outfit. If you want to run with the Pro Stock guys, they're one of the people you'll open an account with. They make the street stuff on the side.

They sell US Gear IIRC, which is a good gear company. Also IIRC the ad might have been for a 12-bolt, which they make up: a brand-new 12-bolt housing, set up for your choice of brakes, ready to bolt into your 3rd gen with torque arm provisions and all. You still have to supply gears, a carrier, and axles, all of which they will gladly provide. I seriously doubt they bother with anything as weenie as a 9- or 10-bolt complete rear though.
