I don't think there will be a problem with the swap, but some research into the specific 450 diff ratio compared with the 380 would tell you quick. I ~think~ they're the same or close enuff.

Got a clear few miles of Interstate and a stopwatch? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/devilgrin.gif

If it'll work with the same speedo cable, and it's geared right, I don't see any problems.
