8.25 build

8-3/4 is twice as much to build. He'll a Dana 60 is cheaper to build. But I'm building my car light and racing with my 273 for awhile so I'm sure it will hold up to some 4speed launches.
If I have to build another, I'll probably go with a 9"!

strange 35 spline spool = $230

strange pro race 35 spline axle kit = $450
(kit includes 3 inch long 1/2in wheel studs, retainer plates, and green bearings)

strange pro gear = $285


Total of $965 plus shipping for a top notch brand. its not any worse.

now, if you had to go buy a Abody housing then you are correct.

thanks for the thread! I think its a cool thread and look forward to the rest of the build up!
