Thank you for the responce ,How does that work when there is only one intake and one outlet, how do you set that up for front and back. One more thing if I may, if you have a 3rd gen F body , I would like to know if a stock driveshaft fits with the 9" ford and what gears are you running with your ring and pinion.

For the one inlet/outlet, you'll have to get a splitter. I'll try to take a pic tomorrow.

Yes I have a f-body(91 GTA)
A stock driveshaft will work with a 9", just need to get another u-joint to hook it to the yoke.
I have a 4.11 in my diff.

What brand 9" are you going with?
What axle?
