You won't lose THAT much through a 12-bolt assuming the same gearing.

If you'd like to learn more about the C/F shaft use the search feature. It has been discussed a few times here VERY recently. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

My car lost 15rwhp after I installed a bolt with 4.10 gears compared to a stock rear with 3.42 gears.

I know, that's why I mentioned the gears.
