Can anyone tell me the best option for a IRS center section being the carrier or housing in your a live axle. I am open to any commonly available and supported set-up. For example I think roadster shop builds one with a 9" ford center section.

I would rather build my own design for the suspension as the front will be all custom as well. Looking for it to hold up to 600-750 hp to start so as I add power I don't need to worry; with the possibility of the same design (doesn't have to be same differential) having potential to 1000 hp.

Is there anybody or any vehicles that use a ford 9" center section that I could find?

As far as product support for IRS conversion, the only thing that even comes close (that would take the HP) would be a quickchange. Only reason to choose something other than those 2 would be because you want to.
