OK, but Auburn sure looks a bit flimsy and I know of no one using one!

My cruise RPM (1800rpm) seems a bit too low in the power band. As for the posi, one brand of the 2 ( and I don't remember which) is rebuildable & the other is not. I have the non-rebuildable installed for 10 years and it hasn't been an issue. As it is I wish for peace of mind that I'd gone with the rebuildable. My nickels worth.

Or just want to have it for fun burnouts on the way to cruise nights? In my Chevelle I have a 10-bolt posi that was an original Chevelle rear, and I have Richmond 3.73 gears in it. It definitely does the trick and didn't run me an insane amount of money.
