Hey guys, I have my 1983 Delta 88 and my long term goal is to swap out the 3-spd for a 2004r and then put a 3.23 in to gain response on the line without sacrificing highway RPM. In a perfect world, a low mileage 4.1L 82-84' Lesabre/Electra both had the 4-spd w/ 3.23 (though electra had 5x5 bolt pattern) I could swap both trans and rear in no problems 2 birds 1 stone. What are some other known non-wagon B/C body cars that came stock with 3.23 gears. I dont want to invest a whole lot of money or time, just a simple swap would be nice. Also not looking for high performance as its just my DD. Anything would be nicer than the 2.41's. Any leads are appreciated.

olds 307 and 403

The Chevy Caprice 9C1 police cars had either 3.08 or 3.42 gears. The Impala SS had standard 3.08 gears, both direct swaps. You could swap better gears in your current housing but you need to find out if your car have 7.5" or a 8.5" rear end.
