According to Strange, the Strange 60 is 20-25# heavier than the Strange 12-bolt. The 9.75" ring gear is virtually indestructible, and the gear losses (5%) are less than both the 12-bolt (7%) and the 9-inch (10%).
Theoretically, If 100 pounds slows you .1 in the 1/4, 25 pounds would obviously slow you .025. If you were making 350 HP to the rear and the DANA ate 5% of that it would leave you with 17.5 loss, 24.5 for the 12 bolt, and 35 for the 9". That means a difference of 7HP between the dana and the moser. If you say that 10HP nets you .1 in the 1/4, 7 HP would gain you about .07 which negates the .025 loss from the extra weight.
