my 79 cobra project

I blew up three 7.5's in my '83 then put in a 9".....that was in '88...haven't broke anything since.
9" isn't required with a 302 2bbl auto, but if your ever going to step it up in the future it's required and the price is a wash or cheaper for a 9" imho.

Personally I'll always take a robust, removable carrier type rear, over a c-clip/tiny/weak/integral carrier type. Maybe I'm too old school?
