The lil magnum 70mm will be just fine for what you want.

However, If you plan on mudding with it and running 35"+ tires, I would look into doing the 80e swap.

Thanks guys I will be going with the 70mm magnum .81 at
That's the one I had picked out but wasn't sure what u guys thought. I appreciate the feedback. Im not to worried about the 60e. It will last until it breaks, just like everything else

Just realize that heat is the biggest killer of the 60e and it will be producing a tremendous amount of heat with 500+ hp going through it trying to turn 38" tall tires in mud. I wouldnt be suprised if it let go on the first pass. Yes it will "last until it breaks" but if it breaks the first time out whats the point of leaving it in there? You must have supporting mods for that amount of power in a street truck let alone a mud truck. Just my .02
