More than likely an open 3.08.

You can race with anything you want. The real question is how long will it last.

+1 on race what anything you want. Behind a six it will last forever. If it is an 8.5" corporate rearend (it should be) they can be made to support a lot of horsepower without failure much cheaper than buying a 12 bolt or 9".
