You probably don't need a 12 bolt for that car, especially if you're going to run a 305 or smaller engine. If you can get the right gear to go in an 8 5/8" 10 bolt, it'd probably be a little faster. Nothing really wrong with putting a 12 bolt in it if you want, it'll last longer and require less attention and maintenance. It just might not be quite as quick, if you care a lot about ET.

why is the 8.5/8 faster if this isn't a stupid question.what if it is a stick car?

Thx

Mark is right. In fact, with a stick car, go buy a new KTR 12 bolt housing, from Mark Williams, Strange, or Moser, with big bearings, steel caps, steel spool, rear cover with girdle, and 35 spline axles.

I figured you were going to run a 305 automatic, like a TH200. My mistake.
