Default rear ends??

I have a few questions about rear ends. I havent shopped for them really at all but i know of the two most popular ones that you guys put on. I just bought nittos and they are on the way, I have a feeling i will be breaking my rearend this summer.

1. What are the pros and cons of the moser 12 bolt and the ford 9inch?
2. Where is the best place to get either one of these.

M6 guys are breaking the 12 bolt and going with the 9". The 9" is stronger than the 12 bolt but is less efficient and a little heavier than the 12 bolt

I know my stocker will eventually giveway but have nothing bad to say about it. 2 yrs with it and week after week i cut 1.6 60ft times with no problems in my m6. Strange or moser are the most popular rears for our cars.

It'll take quite a bit of power to break a 12 bolt... doesn't take much to break a 10 bolt. If you're planning on heavy mods (forced induction, bigger cubes, etc) and are going to be living at the track, then I'd jump straight to the 9" and a spool. If you'll be sticking to mostly just a heads/cam stock cubes setup, then the 12 bolt will be plenty strong.
