Default U-joints: greasable versus non-greasable

I understand that the non-greaseable u-joints are stronger than the greaseable variety. But does it matter for my application?

I should be putting down close to 575 rwhp through the MN6, mostly street miles, occasional runs at the track with drag radials and street suspension.

at that type of power, whether street or track you'd be better off running non-greasable.

Just go with the tougher Non-greasable ones. If you went with the serviceable ones do you think you would ever actually touch them anyways?
