axle

With that much HP you will be rebuilding that 12bolt just about every time you run on the track, probably should go to a dana 60 with a limited slip, my gear choice with a 30'' tire would be a 3.54 ratio. This would give a fairly decent rpm on the street. I custom build axles all day long for hot rods and 4wds. Personally in my longhorn I just put together a 14 bolt with a detroit locker and 3.42s and I am running a fuel- injected, punched out 454. I am guessing my hp to be around 350 to 400
