DeFrank and Cohen had a 9 1/4 in their AA Cuda. I remember looking at it during a points race at Irwindale in the 70's.

There have been many articles about the low drag of the Dana 60. there was an article in one of the Mopar magazines where they took out the 8 3/4 and back to backed it with a Dana 60. the Dana was almost a tenth quicker even with the added weight. If you use the right parts you can get a Dana within 15 pounds of a prepped 8 3/4.
