[QUOTE="Blackmax, post: 15190133, member: 102415"] Mine is the Strange unit used for Cobra Jets and pretty sure its all Ford. Everyone told me to expect the 2 tenths loss, for sure I felt it at the 650-700 h.p. at the time. I don't think I can any longer use it as an excuse because I have about 15% more h.p. plus I changed to aluminum center section. I can hit it hard every launch and getting better 60 foot times than I believe I could ever get with 8.8 without it breaking. Knock on wood this will be season 5 on the rear with no problems other than leak. Had the parts and knowledge been around 5 years ago to build a strong 8.8 I would have stuck with it but I twisted both axles on my "built" 8.8 back in the day . [/QUOTE]
