Re: Ran 11.44 @117.69mph

what are you guys runing for rear ends.. i have a 12 bolt in mine.. i hear there not as strong as the car 12 bolt which confuses me cause i would think a truck 12 bolt would be stronger. of course i am going to beef up whatever i build.. i can get a ford nine inch (wichever one i want) real cheap hear at a local junk yard.. what do you quys sugest. i have not had my engine dynoed but am shooting for 550 hp to 600hp on the motor and 900 on nos.. as i said before i built this thing for nos and have done my home work.. anyways what do you guys think or what are you runin..

Re: Ran 11.44 @117.69mph

I run a truck 12 bolt right now, Eaton posi, Moser 30 spline axles, Richmond gears, LPW braced cover, welded tubes. I'm planning on going to a narrowed Moser 9" with a Detroit locker and 35 spline axles, disc brakes.

What I don't like about the truck 12 bolt, is I don't want to run a spool, and you can't get a posi carrier for anything larger then a 30 spline axle.
