	Hi Gang, Is there anywhere on her or, does anyone know of a resorce on specs & mods that can be performed on rear axles / IRS's? I have a 100e and want a narrow axle to handle around 600bhp. I appreciate I can use a Ford 8" or 9" but they are big beasts.

	An axle to handle 600 horses will be a big beast. There's not much better than a Ford 9" for the job. Aftermarket support is superb.

	As above. 9" Ford axles are the best option. They're not cheap to do, but still cheaper than pretty much any other option by the time you've narrowed something enough to fit a 100E and all the bits are available off the shelf.

	you need to elaborate on the 600 bhp a bit, 600 bhp and 600 lbft from a big turbo engine and 12" wide slicks? or 300 lbft and road tyres? drag racing on prepped surfaces, or just a "daily"?
