I'll bet that Yo Ken and John Shaul haven't forgot nearly / getting thrown out for having the wrong 9" Ford rear end in his Ford and The wrong Mopar Rear end in his Mopar. Just saying...........

Because it's not legal to use an Alum center section in the old cars. That's reserved for the new cars with Ford Rear Ends, or the New Chrysler 8 and 4 quarter Rear Ends.

Right, I'd forgot about that. Certainly makes sense...........not.

Just wondering if they get to run an Aluminum Center Section like the FS cars do?
There was an issue about the Aluminum Center Section being run in the "Traditional" Ford Stockers that had a Ford part number on it and was clearly available from Ford Parts Departments. It had a Strange tag on it.

Was explained to me by Bruce that only the 2008 FS cars got to do that (CJ's COPO's Pak's) and that was the reason "Traditional" Ford Stockers were not allowed the Ford Aluminum center section. I still have the Ford Racing parts catalog with it listed.

Like I said....just wondering?
