keep aluminum DS or put steel one back in? I'm getting ready to do a 3200 converter, and heads and cam. I bracket race the car so I need it to be reliable. So should I sell the aluminum and get money out of it while it's not broken and put the steel one back in? Or will the aluminum one hold up. It's a stock aluminum one.

both are stock driveshafts. Bob, I wish I had the money to get a better one. I'm barley going to make this heads/cam/stall swap being a college student.

If those were my only two choices I would choose the steel one. I have heard and seen more alum ones breaking. Autos are easier on drivetrain parts anyway. But yes as bob stated it won't be pretty if one breaks.
