30 or 33 spline axles?
What does the upgrade to 33 spline do for me? It's a thicker axle, correct? How much stronger is it and is it worth $100? I'm currently at 375 rwtq but plan to use nitrous eventually. Thanks for any input!

Do you have a 12 bolt rear? If not and your running a stock size rear you won't need anything more than the 30 spline.

Dude,
If you are going to drag race your car very much you need the 33's. (I have a little bit of experience on this subject) <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" />
To me it is worth the extra weight and expense (you can pay them now or pay them later) <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Re: 30 or 33 spline axles?
why not? just because they are not necessary. that is good enough for me to save the money and weight.
