Default Re: 9" vs 12 bolt.

A good test would be to a loss test on the 9” nodular vs the High strength steel that Strange manufactures for Ford NASCAR program the HS case is 3 lbs lighter that nodular and about 30 % stiffer. According to Bob Stange so it hold everything in place. I don’t believe an aluminum case is as strong as the Ford nodular with the modified tail bearing, the Daytona pinion support and a load bolt to support the ring gear.
