This is good to know. Thank youIRRC, you could get a 440 4 speed 4 bbl and an 8 3/4 but if you got the 6 pack with a stick, it came with a Dana. Same thing with a Hemi stick but you could get the 8 3/4 if the Hemi was an auto.
8 3/4 w/o slicks usually live a long life. Can you break one? sure. Just like 23 spline 4 speed. Can you brake them?, yup. But it has been my experience on the street both live pretty well under hard abuse. And I do beat on em.

Heavy car, high rpm launches with sticky tires.....usually isn't a good mix. Launching at 6k with a 3400 lb car killed a couple once the car got into the low 11's.....All right then - that's was the straw that broke the camels back - SLICKS. I did a lot of hard beating on the 8-3/4 it lived but it was probably giving up the ghost before the 440. The first run with the 440 was at the track with SLICKS. We can break anything. Just give us a chance.
Seems to be a guy named Jeff thinks side stepping a clutch is good. Ok....go for it man!
