Ford Exploder 8.8 rear axle....

I'll say this: I've never blown a 7.25 up. I've never put any real power in front of it either, but I can tell ya, they'll take 14 second power all day long. In fact, I still have the 7.25 in my '74 Duster with 2.76 open, and I've been running 14's now for about 3 years?? And it gets a share of beating out of town as well as the track. Rear end is still quiet and working nice!
