a dana sure would look cool, but the practical side of me says 9" a couple hours and you can change gears from fun to making time down the highway, a dropout of 4:56 and 3:23 sure sound good..

I say go with the Strange Dana. It'll look tough under that '55! That 9-inch will be plenty strong but it'll cost several hundred dollars more to equal the strength of that Dana. Sure, center sections are interchangeable, but a good one averages $1200 to $1700. Several of them laying around on the garage floor will put anyone in the poor house. I've researched that new Strange S60 Dana and it's really a neat piece. Right around $2K, depending on options, but very, very nice.

I'll tell you what would really set off that Dana 60. If you could find one of those Moroso gold-anodized rear covers. Always thought they look great on a Dana. I remember growing up, if you happened to see a big Dana under a car, you that that guy wasn't messin' around!
