I agree with what has been said. I have a Ford 8 inch in my t bucket and it looks like the 46 Ford I am building will be getting one too, BUT my T is a street car with very limited traction and my 46 is going to be a driver with mild HP. Parts are more expensive for the 8 too. By the looks of your great car that thing is going to haul. Better go with a 9 IMO.
