Yes 9" rears are plentiful. C-clips at the track, depends on the class, at least in the area where I reside, 9" rears are cheaper if you are comparing it to a camaro/nova 12 bolt. If you are going to buy new, not much of a difference in price. Yes 9" rears are stronger as you said. If I was building a 1/4 mile race car as with my 67 nova(which has a 9" w/strange spool, nodular center section, aluminum pinion support, 35 spline axles and 5/8" studs), a 9" would be the obvious choice. Since this is pro-touring web site the thread was not aimed at drag cars.
