rear end

first of all any 8 3/4 is worth saving from the crusher., if you dont use it some one will,, you can resell it for what you have in it buying it @ 100 bucks,, easy,,,its probably more likely to be the width of a B body, but depending what your doing ,you could get off set rims depending on tire size you want to use and make it fit,,

2nd,, unless your running a nitro burning funny car a 741 case will work fine,, to much hoopla about 741 vs 742 vs 489,,, a friend of mine ran a 741 case with 323 gears,, and a narrow slick in a dart with a warmed up 340 AND a 4 speed,,, it never came apart,,so if any one wants to throw out there 741 case ill take it,,, i can remember when you could get a rear end at U PULL IT for 43.00,, and it was only a few years ago,,,
