9" Rear Question
I am about to buy either a 65 or 69 Coupe (considering a 70 Fastback). I plan to put a mild 377 crate engine in it. I am wondering if a 9" rear is worth the money and effort if I do not plan on racing around.
If so, how difficult is this install and do I need a new driveshaft?

Yeah, I was guessing anywhere between 25-40 HP through the drivetrain. I think that would be plenty of pep for a weekend driver. Is it better to go to a junk yard and grab the rear end and have it built? Or buy new?

Dana you'll have to cut down and make fit there mostly in dodge and 1 ton trucks.For a 9 inch http://www.perogie.com/Rears.htm and many other online mustang junkyards can sell you one.

If memory serves me correctly, the old Crown Victoria 9 inch may serve your needs with little modification. I would research this possibility given that there may be many in junk yards and it may suit your needs. Maybe Andrew or others may have insight into this.
