Starting to put parts together for a cruiser truck build. It is going to have a 472 Cadillac V8 and a 4 speed.
The truck has a 12 bolt in it, but I plan on running something with a drop out third so I can play with the gears and the cam. Thirds for both seem to be readily available and relatively inexpensive, but once I get everything dialed in, I would like to have a robust setup.
What do you like of these two options and why? Seems like all 8.75" are nodular, and gears and truetrac prices seem about the same for both. Leaning more towards the 8.75" with a 489 case unless someone can point out what I am missing?
