Dana 60 with upgraded slant six

1st, the title, "with upgraded slant six"..........................talk about drivin' finish brads w/a 12lb sledge!! Geebuz!! Will it work? Well Yeah! I agree, I don't know where You're
shopping, but You ain't finding a drop-in Dana60 for less than the equivalent in an 8.75. Then You throw the wildcard in,......"I'm planning on dropping a smallblock in it",.....
well then why ask the first question? A Dana60 is pretty friggin' heavy and big. If You'll need it then by all means, but if a streetable SB with an automatic is the plan it's
totally unnecessary. An 8.25 SG will do just fine.
