Question Dana 60 for Blazer???

Hey fellas, I am gathering parts for a mild/moderate trail rig. I am going to buy a K5 Blazer as my foundation.

My question is: I just picked up a Dana 60 Posi rearend for this project and it measures 65" from mounting plate to mounting plate(wheel mounting surface).
Is this about the same width as a Blazer rearend?? I wouldn't mind if it is a little wider than a Blazer rear. The inside plates are 54 1/4 " . The rear is a 4:11 posi and I will not be going over 38" tires, probably 35" tires. I already have the Dana 60 front and now my rear. I have the SM465 and 205. It will be a 383 stroker at around 300 Horsepower. just a mild fun trail rig.

So guys, will this rear axle work good for what I want to do? I only paid 100.0 for it.

Thanks guys. I will asking more questions when I need to reweld the perches at the right angles.
