Did Ian build your chassis to suit the BA diff rather than the AU diff? Id like to se a pic of that if you've got one handy. I hear the BA falcon went way from the BTR center and are using a DANA rear end. My wifes friends hubby works for DANA on the supply of suspension and differential components to Ford for the Falcon and Territory.

I believe the BA center is significantly stronger than the AU center but I'll have to do a bit of research to make sure.

The thing to remember with these cars is that they weigh nearly 700KG less than a Falcon or Commodore. That adds up to a lot less strain on the diff which means we can safely throw more HP at it. I think a 9" is probably overkill for what we are doing.

Cheers
