I would say that a M/W Dana 60 would be the mack daddy, but it would be very pricey and heavy. A 9.75 compared to a Ford 9 and a Chevy 12 bolts 8.75.

you have to consider which rearend has the best % of power loss too. i cant remember which one it is but i think its a pretty big difference.

from what i read, the 9" has a lot more parasitic loss than the 12bolt..........that is why most people get the 12bolt unless they are putting out close to 4 digit power.
