8 3/4 Center Section

426Fred · 02-03-2016, 09:42 PM

I am requesting recommendations on where I can purchase a new 8 3/4 center section set up for a stock eliminator car. Looking for 4.88 gear set, spool, etc.

Thanks for checking this out

I believe a dana 60 is faster than 8 3/4 and last longer. Bought mine in 1991 and still great. I look at R and P every two years and it is still good.

A Dana 60 is more "efficient", so it makes up for any weight disadvantage it has against an 8 3/4". (9" is the worst and 12 bolt is the best of the popular HD rears. Don't recall if 10 bolt was compared.) I would have gotten a Dana 60 for my small block cars if I knew what gear I'd end up with and could afford the lump-sum purchase of the whole rear.
