cheap? another 10-bolt
good? 12-bolt or 9" of the 33-spline persuasion.
alternative...someone making an 8.5" rear work. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

The toughest part would be fabbing up a way to mount the torque arm. I'm sure it could be done, but just wouldn't make any sense, IMHO.
If you want something really beefy, stick a Dana 60 under it! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Lowest cost alternative to stock 10 bolt
What would be the best compromise rear end solution, do you think? I broke my stock 10 bolt on 89 octane and a stock motor. What a POS! I don't have very deep pockets or a ton of RWHP, but have the ambition to push 400 in the next year. Any suggestions for a rear end setup?
