As above weld it.

My mate runs a 9" spool in his vette, from what I'm aware its just a cwp, nothing else so technically so heavy gears doing nothing.

Spool diff ŁŁŁ, welded diff Ł1

Your choice, I'd know which one I'd use

TBH, can get spools in the States from Summit etc for under 100quid, hardly any different to what youd pay to get yer diff welded, and stronger and lighter too.

BUT in the UK you wont be as lucky.

You can weld any diff, but easier to do to a open one.
