I would have to research an 8.8
Never bothered to look at one. Last narrow MoFoCo diff I looked at was that 57" wide 9" I got stored .long ,long ,and lonely nights I've cried my eyes out over you.
Why did I rev you up so high.

I ran a 8.8 in my FFR Cobra, took 500rwhp without issue non stop (only 2200# though).. and one out of a ranger should be just bout right for a old mopar... good read ends...I would have to research an 8.8
I am trying to get a 8.75 pig myself but not rushing... car is overwhelming me at the moment
You know what's funny Ray.. my buddys 2 he killed blew a rod out in the same spot... right behind the starter.
More common then folks think.
BTW.. whats the car? and is it still sitting like that? the dust looks 20 years old
Well that was easy. I'm $300 richer.
Clue us in
I think those "$300 people" have a couple of rules.. No kissing on the mouth.. and no telling....
I cashed in on my old 96 Dakota. It was time for it to go.

If you are paying 300 you are getting robbed!
You miss-spelled "Ribbed" which is what the extra money covers
For.. my pleasure...
Speaking of Gen 1 hemis. Here is one with a 6x2 intake I made. Pic was from the building process. Couldn't pass up an offer I got. Not sure if the guy ever got it running.
Just a file picture .
Short story. A few years back I'm in for wound treatment on my leg.You miss-spelled "Ribbed" which is what the extra money covers
After A few minutes the cute young lady walks out then comes back in.with some guy and says I'm the Thorasic Surgeon. Open your pants I want to feel your groin.
Well pal we need to get a few things straight first . how do I address you? Mr Surgeon Or Mister Thoracic.
Second, I don't even kiss on the first date .so you have ZERO chance of getting in my pants, hand or anything else.

Around here there are couple yards that advertise $400 for anything you drive in with a factory cats still on it.
For sure! That much kitty is expensive!!
That sound like my kind of areaYessir... Yellow Spring, WV. Population 296
Yes sir, but like said, you can put a nice 318 in there
, 91 318 low mileage roller lifter La motor, I have one set aside. Yep a good pick in my book Agreea 360 would go in... a 318 would pretty much be a direct replacement and usually $150 for one that still runs.....
If I didn't have my 360 and wanted to remove myself from the 65 trans and 273 engine stuff, a 318 la would be my engine choice, a 91 roller with 61 thousand on it and the trans fell in my lap, I got lucky.
