That is kind of weird how it would make that much of a difference in performance, but cars are weird like that sometimes.
I am planning on swapping my 8" rear out for a 9" with posi (Any posi unit advisable? I know the Detroit Locker is the best but it is expensive.) and 3.89s. With the power I'm making, should I go to the 9" or would the 8" be strong enough to handle the torque and power of my engine for quite awhile? I plan on getting the Performer RPM heads sooner or later too so keep that in mind. Thanks.
