until mine gets here and everyone on the local boards tellin me it's overkill and will rob tons of power to the ground

I'm going to be ordering a Dana S60 in the next few weeks. I don't give a **** about parasitic power loss if it means that I have a rearend that I never have to worry about breaking.
I too would be interested in people experience on this one... According to Strange, its supposed to be heavier than either the 12-bolt or 9" but more efficient than the 9". And of course stronger than both...
What Im concerned about is how the power lost with the 60 vs the weight gained with it over say a 9" equals out. In other words, whats gonna slow me down more? The additional weight or the power to drive, or both?
My power level goals are borderline between the upper spectrum of a 9" (in affordable form) and the lower spectrum of a 60...

I haven't redyno'd but i did run it at the track. i lost 3mph and my et wasn't any better than before but the weather and track prep was bad so i'll try again with some better weather and some slicks.
i love my s60. fitment is unbelievably great and i'm not complaining about the slightest whine i get between 45-60 as long as it doesnt' come apart.
