for a twin power added combo? you're going to have to go to Supersix motorsports.

There is no Ford Racing forged rotating assembly.

I doubt even the T-bird SC rotating assembly would stand up to that. you're going to have to go custom longblock from either Morana or Supersix.

I've heard nothing but good things about morana so I will most likely stick with them. You're right, the ford rotating assembly I was looking at was not forged. I may not fool with the n2o for a couple years on my v6. If I stay with just the turbo should I still go with the 8.8" and forged rotating assembly. If so I will go with the kit that is on moranas site. I know this seems like it is going on and on. I appreciate the help

Depends on the amount of boost and the cam, I reckon.

An 8.8" is going to be a must. You'll want to weld the axle tubes, and have 9" ends welded on as well to support the power. It'll helpo with axle articulation.

not if it's just a 7psi garrett. he's dropped the N2O.

So if he was running 8psi, then it would be a tottaly different thing then?

Depends on the HP a Detroit Tru Trac along with a T/A girdle has held up to 400 RWHP in the 7.5 configuration . An 8.8 would be necessary for anything above that and it would still need to be built ( Better axles , girdle , differential)
9 " housing ends are a nice touch but you really have to be throwing down a lot of torque for those to be a necessity .Welding the torque boxes and axle tubes, yeah good call.

9" end are a must for 400+rwhp. THe small OD bearing of the 8.8" just can't handle hard launches, atleast not for long.

A 7.5" shouldn't even be an option for a car making real power. It's never going to handle the abuse and power, if you're properly using it.

The weak link in the 7.5 is the spider gears take that out of the and put in the tru trac and it works I know people who have done this , I didn't belive it either at first but it does work as I stated , Now I would not do but I have seen it done and it works .

We will have to see about the 8.8 I have a Moser spool and 33 spline axles with c-clip eliminators and I should be putting down about 600 to 650 RWHP (of coarse not on the launch ) .It should run 9's all day.

Of course not.

the 7.5" is good for 11+ psi of supercharged forced induction.
