I've done a little reading and I know everyone is generally hyped on the 4 bolt rear end. But is the swap really worth it? Will 400 or so whp really snap the 3 bolt rears?
I know that it's considered an upgrade but what's the opinion on here? Necessary? -------------------- |

When the trip to US41 was rained out, I ended up talking to a kid with a 91 AWD there. His car was mostly stock, and he busted a rear axle the last time he was at the strip. I believe it had a ton of miles on it though.
