Im pretty sure i have been told the HO72 EATON comparable to the 14 bolt. The 14 bolt is a newer design that replaced the HO72. The only real problem with the HO72 is there is not really any aftermarket products. I run the HO72 but i have not had the hp to put it to the full test. With my planned 472 big block hopefully going in this comming spring i will see how she holds up.
