We have a ton of builds out there based around road racing and our Watts link that is fabricated as part of the housing has got a ton of positive reviews. A ton of choices out there, it just depends on your budget and goals.
As far as goals I want to be able to go to an from the track in street form an launch aroun4-5 w/o issues drive home. An also still be able to carve corners. Probly go with some 3.90s im looking to spend around $2500 I want 4 channel cause it is a street car. I just want to not worry about the rear after it's done as I shouldn't for that price. An probably in final trim hope for around 700whp.

The above Moser 9 inch with a locker is currently on sale for $2450.00 shipped. The locker will handle your 700whp, but doesn't always work out well for guys with manual transmissions. The only other differential I would recommend is a Wavetrac, but the rear would be out of your price range, as it is $2,851.80 shipped. http://shop.brutespeed.com/Moser-9-I...h-Wavetrac.htm Bob

If your gonna stay with the stick don't buy a locker. I have a locker in mine with 4.10's and its a 12 bolt. Which I'm thinking about selling in the future BTW. Pm me if you want to talk more about it, as far as how it behaves. Just some advice.
I felt for a great street/strip rear the s60 was the way to go. I would say the ONLY draw back is the shorter DS you need but on the plus side it makes you upgrade to what you should have since the stock one with a conv. joint isnt the way to go

^^^^considered an S60 for my build (see sig) and would have been fine for my application. if I was going to pound this thing down the 1320, I would have gone wav-trac to be safe. 9 or S60 would have been sufficient. went MWC 9 due to current mods so the cost made sense...tru-trac too

.... I will contact you surely at midwest chassis as you were the first sponser to check with at the site (Didn't find any S60) so i continued browsing .... I like the idea of the 1 Stop Shop very much as you mentioned & I just wanted to meet the Unbreakable Rear end,driveshaft combo with all the supporting rear suspension .... The fabricated 9 is said to weight in about the same as the original 10 bolt that came in the fbody. So far the wave trac seems to carry the best warranty. I've been truck pulling with my dana 60 in the front for a while without issue. It has an ARB locker in it. I've never seen a 9 inch in truck pulls.
subscribed......not trying to hijack the thread, but i plan to buy a better rear sometime this summer.....i am mostly a street car (less than 450rwhp m6, bolt ons, cam soon), only seeing the track a few times a year....mainly i'm afraid of spending this much $$ on something only to have gear whine from a set of 4.10/4.11's after a couple of hard launches.....there's alot i don't understand when it comes to rears, so hopefully this thread can give some good info to guys in the same shoes as me
Midwest Chassis Fab 9" rear end / Direct Bolt in I ordered my Fab 9" rear end Base package with Black Powder coat,Meziere rear side filler cap, & Strange 31 spilne axles machined for the stock ABS/TCS traction control Reluctor rings.
This rear end was a direct bolt in. Rear came with Timkin bearings, seals & all hardware for install. No modification necessary.
Eric advised me to go with 2" shortened axle on each side to fit Weld 15x10" 5.5 backspace wheels for running Deep Dish Weld wheels.
Eric also advised me to go with his short torque arm. He said this would be best for my automatic equipped car. He said the short arm shocks the tires more.
The transmission cross member, Torque arm mount, & Driveshaft Loop are fabricated in one unit. This relocates the Torque arm off of the transmission & places the load on the newly supplied cross member to take the load off the transmission. Torque arm is made of Chrome moly steel.
This is the most complete Fab 9 rear end available.
Eric & Jason both advised me & helped me make the correct decisions for my application. Best customer service that i have ever experienced.
Thank you Eric & Jason..!!
