What have you done to keep the 8 3/4 alive behind your motor? Is it just back braced? I’m trying to decide if I need to trade up for a Dana 60.

Yes just back braced and 1350 yolk. It’s a factory original 3.23 suregrip afaik.
 
Props to PTC converters. They completely rebuilt my converter and had it on my door step in a week. They called me the day it arrived at their shop and we discussed my combo and they built it around that.
It’s all brand new, only the cover was re-used. Spragless and good for 1000hp according to PTC. I’m happy with the 9.5” Circle-D I got from my buddy so might sell this one or hold on to it as a spare. Anyway, I would not hesitate to use PTC again. Amazing service.

Is this their pricier steel stator converter? I’ve heard and seen some very good results with those!
 
I hope you get to try it out so I can see your results without having to buy my own first! lol

They’re supposed to couple really well. I think you’d see a mph gain even in the 8th

Buy this one from me! I’m just not in the mood to drop the trans and swap out the converter anytime soon. :)
 
I was tempted to ask, but I’m also not in a hurry to pull my trans or motor any time soon.

You're going with a circle D converter? I contacted them Last year and they said they won't do any mopar converters. Hmm.

It’s one a buddy of mine had made several years ago by Circle-D, used briefly in his turbo Dakota and has been sitting on a shelf since.
 
Rainy day project. Thinking about retrofitting the factory dash with custom gauges, pulling data off the Megasquirt CANBUS. This is my proof of concept using a small embedded board with CAN transceiver and a programmable HMI display.

That's awesome. What are you using for the HMI?
