Hi gang,
 
I asked several weeks ago about swapping out my 1600 rear end with my
2000 rear end since I'm dropping the 2000 drive train into a restored
1600 car. Everyone who commented said to leave the 1600 rear end in
because of the better "off the line" performance. 
 
The question I failed to ask was, will a 1600 drive train perform well
with a 2000 rear end installed? I other words, I'm dropping a 1600 drive
train into the old 2000 body and selling it. Should I swap out the rear
ends and keep a 1600 engine with a 1600 rear end? I hope this makes
sense.
 
 
Thanks
 
Steve Harvey
