Default Re: 8.8" in a 65 Stang

Why not just upgrade the 8" with an Auburn Pro limited slip and some gears? That's what I did and it's been great. Did the job myself for about $400 for the Auburn Pro and $600-700 for the third member with 3.25/1 gears. I think it's plenty strong enough for my 350 or so hp with the C-4. You can get almost any gear ratio ring and pinion you might want from Ray Currie in Ca. You could also get him to build the 8" for probably $1000 or so. It would be a lot easier than trying to fit an 8.8" in an early Mustang.
