* There are 2 spool offerd in a dana
35 spline lightweight 13 lbs
40 spline lightweight 12 lbs
* We can build the rear end to any length as long as it clears the brackets and I think the shortest you go without interfering with the brackets is 3" from each side.
* We dont not offer any aluminum housing ends.
* On the weight we dont have all the weights with different setups available at the moment but once I know something I'll let you guys know.
* 12 bolts can be very light a full drag one is 148 lbs but its weaker then the dana and when you compare the 2 its like comparing the 10 bolt to to a 12 bolt.

So reading up on Dana rearends...
"Gear sets ranging from 3.54 through 7.17:1 are available, though ratios lower than 4.10 (higher numeric) require a specific carrier."
Does this hold true with your rear martin?
If I go with like a 3.73 setup now, I won't need to change my spool or anything later if I want to go to a different gear...

Martin,
1) at what point would the billet caps be a good upgrade?
2) What yoke comes with this GP, the S-series or the chromoly one?
3) If I went with a 3.73 setup, I could later upgrade to a 4.30(max), correct? I think it requires the use of strange's gear...
4) Does the alum rear cover - D3509 - fit without any issues??
Think thats about all the info I need. Seems like a good choice for the rearend minus the weight factor. Oh well, my car is a pig anyways....

* S-series yoke is good upto 900HP which is standard in the dana
* The D3509 LPW cover will not clear the back cross bar of the car but the chrome and the Strange cover will clear just fine
* You can go to 3.73 gear but if you decide to go with shorter gear, a 4.30 US/STRNAGE will work and a 3 series 4.10 will be good too.
