max power on stock rear?
#12
Dont use the stocker. Dropp that mother ****** like it's hott! I had a half bridge 12a and I use to go through ring and pinions like nothing. Granted I rompmy **** hard, but thats what its all about. Go 9" or 8.8" yeah its heavier but u will be able to launch as hard as u want and smoke evry body Tranny wise I believe u said the engine and trans is a package? If so sell the fd trans use the chips to score a TII. I don't know for sure wich is stronger but all u have to do to make it fit is swap your 12A tail housing with the TII and bam no cuttin hackig or welding. Use the 12a cross member and driv it like you stole it Final thought I have bin told by my elders that its possible to shorten the shift rods and make 3rd gear so easy to find your mom could not miss or any other noob hehehe. let us know how it goes, oh and pics.....

The rear end really depends on how hard you are on it. I would save the cash and give the rear end a chance, but that many ponys will rip tha 12A tranny apart!!
I know the turbo trannsmissions have one extra spline on the input shaft. I learned that the hard way! If your going to put a engine that has a turbo E-shaft in it you will need a turbo transmission.
