Why buy a 12 bolt or a 9" when you can make that 10 bolt strong for around $600?

I thought it was well written, why does everyone want to write the editor and bash them?



It doesn't say anything about supporting that power level, so you are right, but your comments reflect the bandwagon bash train
only reason people want to write in and bash the editor is b/c we are all alittle soar with GM for sticking us with such a lame *** rearend with such a powerhouse of a car. So God forbid they speak of the 10 bolt in any positive way.

yup, and when they try to launch a car with that "built" 10 bolt with slicks, the same thing will happen that happens to a stock rear, it will break.
