Question Best Rear-end Options?

I'm shooting for around 600-700HP, with a Procharger and I want something that can handle this, possibly a little more.

I know I need to upgrade to a 12 bolt rear-end. I've read that Strange, Mosier, and Dana make the 12 bolt rear ends, but I'm not clear on the spline, and other little details. I definately know I want 4.10 gears, but don't know anything about the "series" of them.

What would be my best rear-end option for what I'm trying to achieve?

They seem to only sell Mosier rear-ends though right? I'll get a hold of them and see what he suggests. It seems as though a lot of people lean toward the Strange rear-ends on this board though.

Go with a 9" or dana 60, Im guessing your car is a t56 since you want 4.10 gears , and Driveline can get strange too, atleast he priced me for a strange dnan 60 !

A Moser 9 inch rear, which was originally designed by Ford, is what I would recommend for your application. The Moser 9 inch with the torque arm mount is designed to be a direct swap into an F Body. It is stronger than the 12 bolt, the only disadvantage is that it is not offered as an ABS only rear. If you have ABS and traction control, that option is available for $100.00. For those who have ABS only, some will disconnect their ABS, while others go with the 12 bolt. Bob
