I still haven't given it much thought yet, because winter is coming and I have no money anyway. However, based off the little amount of knowledge I have, I think my best bet is to replace it with a 12-bolt. But I refuse to spend $2500 on a new one seeing as how I'm broke and in enough debt already. I'm hoping when I get my tax return I'll come across a used one for sale that isn't in Texas or Cali or somewhere way across the country.
Seeing as how I plan on keeping this car for a LONG time, I don't know if I can justify sticking with a 10-bolt because it will probably just break again. It just seems like throwing money down the drain. I just need to do some research about splines and spools and all that shit, I have no idea what any of it means. I still haven't done any research yet on ls1tech or anywhere. But at this point, I'm thinking that if I can get lucky and find a used one over the winter that I can afford, hopefully I can upgrade to a 12-bolt. Unless I find a complete 10-bolt w/ 3.42+ for DIRT cheap.
