Vette(s): 1975 C3 Red, T-Tops, Black Interior. All I need is time and money! Getting there!
Just a thought.
 
The solid u joints are stronger and will take a lot of punishment.  But there is no way to service them.  When the wear out, they wear out.
 
The greasable joints are not as strong.  But being able to lube them could make them last the life of you car.  They are strong enough for any C3 in stock form.   Built up engines may be a bit too much for them long term.
 
Take your choice.

I am with Ken,I've always replaced U-joint with greasable ones,thats the reason they go bad no grease,they are not as strong as the heavy duty ones,but they work fine for stock applications
