well it all depends on what your running. Just bear in mind its a 28spline axle whith a 8.5" ring gear and 10bolts for the ring gear to the carrier and it usues C-clips for holding the axles (unexceptable for a high performnce v-8 in my eyes). Its identical in most working dimensions to a GM 10 from a truck.

Dana 44's can hold up to medium-high performance. full race needs a 9er. that white luv down in houston does low 9's on a dana 44 out of a mail jeep.

btw the center chunk of the IRS in a most vettes is a dana 44. NHRA will certify a vette IRS down to 9.00 when the mandated upgrades are made. they can be built to perform
