I am looking at buying a new rearend from Quick performance.com and am looking for some help on how I should set it up? I am going to run a T5 and hope to have a 347 stroker.I was considering the housing with Moser axels like 31 spline.Not sure what bearing size is the best?And getting the pig {center section} used or some where else and have no clue what gears to get?I have a 66 coupe if you dont know.
Thanks for the help in advance!

Try finding a lincoln Versailles rear end They are a 9 inch,heavy duty and the added bonus is they are rear disc brakes.They bolt right in a 66 with minimal mods.

Nah I am done with buying used stuff then finding out later its not the way to go.I want something that I wont have to upgrade or change later.

You need to figure out alot of variables for the gears to work for you.If you are looking for the best possible et's you need to have the tire size figured.What rpm your engine makes peak power at among other things.Just taking a wild ass guess I would say a minimum of 4.11's

yeah I know theres more to consider in figuring the gears I was looking for mostly info on axel spline and bearing size.what axels are the best? whats size brakes 8 or 11 ?what brand gears? Just all the info I can get I dont want to buy the wrong rearend again.Anyone need a spicer 8" ford rearend?

anyway I bought a new 9" ford housing from quick performance with the big bearing and moser 31 spline axels drilled for 5 on 4.5 and 5 on 5 and need to get the 11" brake setup.They said I could use backing plates and brakes from a early model F150.Has anyone done that and have the parts list of what I will need.
