I have finally gotten to the point of starting work on a couple of '67 Mustangs I own. My plan is to build one with a 390 and keep the 302/5.0 in the other. One of the cars has an 8" rear end and the other a 9".
Is an 8" rear end sufficient for a fairly stock 90s Mustang 5.0? Or would I be better off tracking down a second Mustang 9" rear end?
Curious what all you builders here think. The current 9" in the Mustang is in good shape and doesn't need any work. The 8" needs a full rebuild. Taking that into consideration, finding another Mustang 9" in good used shape might be around the same amount as rebuilding the 8.
