Dana 60 swap

Just because of the 383 stroker. That’s all. Unless I missed something important here. What trans are you running? Is it a 383 that has been stroked after being a 383? If so what is the new cid? I replaced an 8 3/4 in mine so I didn’t cut the a body one. The ford 8.8 that I put in the valiant is way closer to your price goal. Disc brakes, no cut, no axle swap, got rims from a jeep compass and welded perches

Good grief give the guy a break. In post number one it says he has a Dana and he wants to know how to build it to put in his car. He didn't say should I put a 8.8 or 8 3/4 or a 12-bolt Chevy he said he has a Dana.

It's like when somebody says they want help in figuring out how to build a 318. The next thing you know you got 10 people telling him to forget the 318 and put a 360 in. Then you got another half a dozen guys, saying take that 360 and stroke it. Not one bit of help to help him with the 318.
