Alex how come you wiil not get in the 8.8 or 8".I'd love to hear what you think about the 8" and how you can set it up to take more abuse.I looked at soom older posts.You seem to like the 8".I just need some advice.I'm looking for a good price and good rear too.
WOW that sounds like a promo for Neveda.
Its for me to go out and put 600 to 1000 on to the rear when the hole car only has 2700 in it now.Low buck big bang.Thanks for your time.Ron

I would love to do whatever you all like. 8 inch or 8.8 inch? What would you all like me to tell you about them that you don't already know?

Alex I think we all know that the 8.8.Is the best choice over the 8.8.
But what I'd like to know is how can or can set up an 8"to hold up to some strip use and hard street use.The cheaper the better.I know good not and cheaps not good.But lets say on my set up is the 8" worth putting the gears and posi.I will not have slicks,and the motor will get alitle more power then now.
Or is it best to go witht he 8.8 and do you know of any that has put the 8.8 in a classic stang.I think you can pick the 8.8 with the posi and gears used for around $300 to $600.But hen you have to move the perches and figure out the u jionts and drive shaft.

Have you ever raced with the 8" or have any friends that do.And what did you or they do to make it more strong.

Thanks Alex I know it seems like the same questions over and over,but there a little different and all the info I can get helps.

Thansk Ron
