We have been checking the prices to get rid of the 8 3/4 in the Cuda when we swap the new engine into the Cuda. The current 8 3/4 just has a Richmond spool and gears and budget Moser axles. The Dana we are looking at is a Strange S60 with 35 spline axles, richmond spool and gears with a standard chrome cover. Everyone I talk to is saying.."The only people that run a Dana are people that HAVE to run a Dana." Well, the 9 inch option seems to be MUCH more costly. I could care less about the ease of swapping third members. We have NEVER broken at the track and would like to keep it that way. Lets hear some opinions and the +/- of Dana vs. 9 inch.
