Default differential help

so my stock differential is burnt and only spinning the right tire...should i buy a stock replacement or should i save up and get an aftermarket one? will an aftermarket one make a big difference? my car is goin to be street driven and goin to be the track. i have a mild h/c/i with bolt ons and its an AOD (i plan on getting a stall converter over the winter)
if i get an aftermarket differential, i dont wanna spend a lot of $$ so i would want a cheaper one

thanks

I would just rebuild the stocker and do a repack on the clutches. put some extra clutches in on the rebuild and that will help. do a search on rear rebuild you should find what you are looking for.
