8.5" for $1,500?

saw this posted on craigslist. was thinking about it for my Monte Carlo SS but its way too much, at least in my opinion.

That's one town away from me. Lot of money for that. Doubt he'll get it.

Was looking for the vendor here from Connecticut that has a lot of transmissions and differentials. Yeah he is asking way too much and I doubt he is going to get $1,500 for it. Tried to trade him a 12 bolt out of my old GTO but no luck

Probably a junkyard score - but a decent one at that
Wouldn't mind taking it for a spin just to see what a 3.73 felt like.
But not long term - I like my highway cruising too much.
(Notice he is looking for a 3.42 as well)

Those SBC 350 / Olds 305 guys snap up these ratios to make up for their lack of power.
$1500 might be a little rich - but those other G-bodiers hunt these vs their more typical 7.5"'s

And - aside from the part that this was an option for a GN - his ad is pretty decently constructed - with plenty of detail.
Gotta give him credit for that.
Not your usual CrazyList ad with a single blurry picture and one long running sentence that looks like it was typed on a phone in text speak.
