Ford 8.8 Swap

Well, for the price of a "well set up" 8.8, couldn't you just get a 8 3/4?

I suppose if you already own the 8 3/4. Don't get me wrong I've got 8 3/4 in my Duster which is pretty bullet proof. I just think the 8.8 is a viable and low cost upgrade for a 7 1/2 or maybe 8 1/4. since you can go buy a 8.8 complete
with discs for $200 or less and have it shortened for the same price you'd pay to have a c-body 8 3/4 done. And there's just a whole lot more of 8.8 stuff
available used.
