For a serious racing the 1350 yoke is probably the way to go. The 1330 is OK for most street/strip cars. I think the old Ford muscle cars (CJ, Boss, etc.) came with N-cases with short 1330 yokes and Daytona pinion supports. I remember a chart showing recommended torque ratings in ft-lbs (I think) for the different yokes: 1310 - 400 continous torque, 800 short duration torque, elastic limit (breaking point) 1600; 1330 - 550 continuous, 1000 short duration, elastic limit 1875; 1350 - 680 continuous, 1240 short duration, elastic limit 2260.
