If your budget is 2 grand go with the Dana. We race nothing but 9.5's but one Dewco 3rd member cost nearly 5 grand.

I'll bet you that many junk yards will sell you any nine inch ford rear end they have for under a $1000.00 if you want a "race" nine inch witl all the good parts including good brakes it will probally cost a little more than $2000.00, $2500.00+ probally Quicktree where are you

Unless you need to change gear ratios on a regular basis, a Dana 60 is the best bang-for-the-buck rear you can get for a torquey, street/strip or moderate strip car. I can provide a complete, 100% brand new, 35 spline assembly for under $2000.
If you NEED to step up to a "high(er) end", dedicated drag rear, I would skip the 9" in favor of a 9.5" Ultra-Case.
9.5" third-members start at $1800.

I would give Cass (DrDiff) a call and order a D60. Did it about 5yrs ago and have thrown 750hp at it in a 3800lbs street/strip car with either an automatic and a 4-speed behind it. Not a single problem. Meanwhile it's in a big slick, lightweight clutchless 4-speed car but not much experience jet to say something about it.
