JM2¢? This may be your last chance to sell the 8-3/4 to a friend with a clear conscience ("no damage"), and reduce your Dana cost as much as possible. Once it starts making noise...

That is the key. A 8-3/4 will take a bunch of power, but if you are racing it often (and hooking) it will eventually break.
I wouldn't jump on the Dana "bandwagon" w/o really taking a look at what you WILL be doing with the car.
My car may see some track time as well, and has some pretty good power, but it sure isn't going to be often enough to worry about the 8-3/4 breaking, or spending the cash on a Dana.
