which rear end on a budget?
is the 8.8 rear pretty much status quo for building a low budget fbody? How much abuse can the stock z rear take before exploding? iron headed non stroked small block, right much nitrous, th350 with NO tbrake...the 8.8 is tired and i have a stock z rear lying around. Will it hold up for a season?

You talking about the 10 bolt? It holds up pretty decent in the 1.6 or slower range, anything faster and it could go any second. I wouldn't trust it on anything getting down decent in the 60'.

A good low cost way to go that bolts right in is to use the above Moser 9 inch housing and axle package. Pick up a used Ford 9 inch center section and install it, and run it this way until you can afford to put a stronger aftermarket center section in it. Bob

Stock Ford center/posi aint no stronger then a 10 bolt. Hold out for something nice to go in there. The axle housing package is one of the better budget options to start with though.
