Carlyle. They just pre-announced it on FB. No price yet but he said way less than $10k. Not sure how much “way” is. The BIG news is.... he said he has 2.75 and 3.00 9” Pro gear sets. Again, not sure if those are only available with this complete conversion or possibly separately.

That should be the last diff ever needed. If you break that thing you have a curse.

That piece is absolutely beautiful! I think I found the diff for my build.

What does it take to install that bad boy? Is it a bolt in, or do you have to make more mods to get it working?

I must be getting old (Sticker Shock!) That is a very beautiful and beefy looking piece, but I thought in the neighborhood of 3.5/4K . Under 10? That means just under 10 I'm guessing. It's gotta have a lot more mass and moving parts for that. You can get a tranny or 426 Long block for @ the same. Too rich for me ,even if I had. Very nice though.

Conversions like this are bolt in. They just basically replace the existing pieces (diff, axles, driveshaft) with strong replacements that can take the huge increases in power that modded Hellcats and Demons are starting to see. Up to now there have been two choices for rear end conversions. G-Force and DSS. This is a new one. If it’s competitive cost wise with those it be a hit with the super high hp cars that want a reliable rear end to go rounds.

Carlyle is collaborating with DSS on this. It's designed for the DSS axles and driveshaft. I've seen mixed reviews on the DSS driveshaft. I know of multiple that have failed.

The $10k number was what some were guessing it was going to be priced at. Carlyle responded that it was going to be way less than that. When you consider that HD axles from DSS are $1600 and the Driveshaft is over $1000, if this comes in at $5000, that would put the whole conversion at $7600. The package cost of the DSS 9” conversion is...... (wait for it). $7600. I have no idea what this work of art is going to end up costing but for racers who have scattered multiple stock differentials and ended up on the trailer early on those days...... it starts looking reasonable.

Beat me to the “set on the mantle” comment. Was thinking the same thing.
