I know lots of fast guys that swear by both.
Agree on that I recently spoke with the top driver of alien racing and he also uses steel because he can't justify the cost of ceramic. To each his own.

For the grease I used to have corally grease and moved for schumacher diff grease I use in my offroad cars
