I'm at a crossroad here guys please help.
I currently have a fresh (less than 50 mile) 8.5" to put under my mild cammed LS 6.0 swap Regal.
The rear end was setup for drag so it currently has a Richmond mini-spool, a 4.10 gear set, and Moser stock replacement axles all new.
I'm setting the car up for daily street use, but I'd like to be ready to head to the track and make a few passes without worries. If I run this rear I will be swapping a posi in it. Hopefully a Stocker clutch type if I can find a good deal. (Anyone feel free to PM me on that).
Ok so my dilemma.
I've recently been given the chance to trade into a New Moser 9" 31 spline axles, a 3.50 Trac-loc third member, and a complete LS1 rear disc brake set up. Even swap for my rear.
My motor combo goals are about 400-450 rwhp. So either rear end will live long time behind my setup so is the extraweight and claimed 2-3% ppower loss justifiable in my case?
My thoughts now are to jump on the trade cause it feels in general to be a trade up. Finish the build with the 9" tune it it in and play with it. If I somehow feel like I'm losing anything with the 9" offer someone that thinks they can use it the same trade deal later.
Opinions please.
