66 Mercury 100 pickup... 550-600 horsepower 466 C.I.
Looking to build a reliable 9" for this truck, its a street/strip 4-Link deal..
Trying to build an affordable/reliable setup that I don't have to worry about grenading on a launch off a trans brake.
Thinking about using a big bearing housing and center section out of a 73-79 F-150 4x4.
Looking for a LSD/Locker that will hold up at the track, but will allow me to drive the truck in town once in a while. Will a decent 31 spline axle hold up to the task?
Is housing reinforcement necessary at my level?
Looking forward to your thoughts.
Thanks,
Derek
