I have a 71 Nova with a 10 bolt. What do I look for to know if I have the large or small one? Is it maybe ring gear diameter? I knew this a long time ago but can't remember now. My thoughts were to just buy a complete 12 bolt from Strange, but it sounds like the big 10 bolt is plenty stout. Car came with a 307 and a glide. Still has the glide in it. I'm betting it's the small one.
