Look at the date. That’s the 2015 car.
And besides the 9" Ford rear, the previous model years were equipped with T400 transmissions. They work.allegedly that 354cid Supercharged Hemi
it says; makes in the neighborhood of 1500hp, not officially rated
7.50 chassis cert., previous years sold for $110,000
no actual current HP rating or no actual current sale price
in the article below from Nov. 6th 2019, "latest I found quickly anyway"
(a 9" Ford -lighter- instead of a Dana-60, that's sacrilege )

They need to offer the bigger 426cid (crate is only 1000hp) Hellephant
in a higher HP rating for the Drag Pak, like 1800hp+,
no replacement for displacement
like the rest of the brand x Factory Stock competitors will come out with
oh If I had one I'd drive it around my little rural communityAnd besides the 9" Ford rear, the previous model years were equipped with T400 transmissions. They work.
And I'm not going to lie. If I had the opportunity to buy one I would sneak it on the street
Yep just 50. Mainly need the Supercharged car for the NHRA FSS class. Ford & Chevy released a new & updated car for 2019 & the 15 DP struggled to keep up. The 2020 has all the new tricksOh hell, I was looking at articles about it must have snagged the wrong link. From what I read they are only making 50 drag pack challengers this time around.
It’s the only 3 speed with a SFI rated case to this level. No other reason. Just safety bAs I recall the 9" Ford had several advantages:
Lighter housing & overall weight
Better pinion bearing support(with proper bearing combinations & sizes)
Disadvantage
Higher friction hypoid angle
Need all top quality components
Would love to hear what the Pro's say is the advantages of the TH400. Not real obvious to me.
As for the rear the word is the 9 inch takes less horsepower. So that’s why it’s the mandated rear for FSS only.As I recall the 9" Ford had several advantages:

It ought to take more, the 9 inch has more friction due to the higher wipe angles. 9 inch rears need oil coolers at Nascar where 8 3/4 didn't.As for the rear the word is the 9 inch takes less horsepower. So that’s why it’s the mandated rear for FSS only.
These aren’t rear Ford rears. Aftermarket. Kinda like Keith Black Hemi blocks. Much improved over Stock Ford rears. I’m pretty sure the Indy Hemi SS/AH cars are all using 9’inch aftermarket rears because one qualified last year with a D60 & leaf spring & it was news. 70’s technology vs today’s. He was slow compared to top qualifiersIt ought to take more, the 9 inch has more friction due to the higher wipe angles. 9 inch rears need oil coolers at Nascar where 8 3/4 didn't.
That's the info I got from my builder "back in the day", he was a die hard Ford guy. He & his buddy built a full out MP Mustang & explained the advantages & dis-advantages of the 9". Of course they need to start the "big" version, nodular or aluminum pumpkin, lite spool, pro gears, back brace, premium aftermarket axles, etc. Dana, good axles, good gears, good Power Lok or spool, good to go. Dana is heavy.It ought to take more, the 9 inch has more friction due to the higher wipe angles. 9 inch rears need oil coolers at Nascar where 8 3/4 didn't.
