Upgrading to a 12-bolt differential for your 1970 Corvette can provide several benefits, including:
- Increased strength: The 12-bolt differential is stronger and more durable than the factory differential. This can handle more power and torque without risk of failure, making it ideal for high-performance driving.
- Improved traction: The 12-bolt differential can provide better traction and grip, especially when using wider tires or racing slicks. This can lead to improved acceleration and overall performance.
- Gear ratio options are limited: The 12-bolt differential only offers two gear ratios for the Corvette, 3.73 and 4.10..
- Better cooling: The 12-bolt differential has better cooling than the factory differential. This can help to reduce the risk of overheating and prolong the life of the differential.
- Improved reliability: The 12-bolt differential is a proven design that has been used in high-performance vehicles for many years. This means that it is reliable and has a good track record of performance.
