Dana 60 strength

savoy said

Just scored a 1969 B body Dana...4.88 gears, sure grip, 11 inch drums. Going under my 68 dart. Rear end just rebuilt. Will it hold up on the street behind a 4 speed, Caltracs and a 572 Crate hemi? Will be running 10 inch period correct "cheater slicks". No track time, just messing around on the street. Opinions please. Thanks in advance.

Without reading a sentence more in the entire thread your rear is legendary in its strength and the use of good parts makes it that way. Now that it is built right with the best parts, that HEMI even @ a 572 cid is under powered to brake that rear, if built right, it will last a very long time. Your grand kids will thank you for taking the time to build it right.
