Depends on how much money you want to spend and what you want to do with it.
9" is probalby the best choice, parts are available, easy to find, etc.
12 bolt is also good, same as above.
If your not going to tub it or anything, you just want something in the 53-56" range, preferably anyway. I have a 10bolt from a 66 Chevy II that is 58" it fits ok, but the tires are right at the edge of the fenders.
Good Luck

The rear end in my truck is out of an S dime and it fits right in with the stock rear end and I just put a posi out of a Camero (<- spelling?) in it and some beefier tires with the battery in the back and it hasent broke yet and I am getting pretty decent traction.
