    This is where I started, helped enough for me to be satisfied for now. May do more if I do a complete rebuild. - and yes - I am cheap.

    My 37 is my long distant car. Vacations and long weekend trips.
    Running an 8ba with the original 3 speed and rear end. My gearing is the 378. Running large rear tires. Original to this Nebraska car with nothing but long roads.
    It will run comfortably for hours at 70mph.
    Looks to me you just need a rear end gearing change.

    Very reliable.
