which posi to get???

i'm gonna get a posi diff in the near future and was just wondering which ones you guys liek the best. Right now the only one i've found for a 7.5 10 bolt is the auburn unit, is this any good??? I know moroso makes one but it's for the 8.5's...can you use an 8.5 diff in a 7.5 housing? i'm sure slp also makes a unit, how good is this? and if there's any i havent mentioned please let me know...thank you

I bought the Auburn Pro posi since I had plans of street drags... it costs a little more but I have ZERO regrets... its awesome.

8.5 posi would require 8.5 gears, all of which won't fit.
If your going to spend the money, get a powertrax locker. Better traction than posi, easier to install (you don't have to remove the gears), and just as streetable in my opinion. I've had mine for around 4 years without any problems.
