RE: quick question
Well detroit true track is the best, but pricey as hell to, the ford t-lok will be fine, but if you can find a deal on Eaton, or Auburn, then get one of those. One question, does your dad have to proper tools to set the gap between the gears and the differential, if not, then bring it to a shop, set the gap too tight and you'll burn up the rear end, too loose and you'll strip the gears.

RE: quick question
Yea, but a 65 stang and a new one are two totally different animals. A lot of people can do old muscle car rear end swaps, but new cars have to be set 100% right or else you're gonna be buying a new rear end.
