+1 more for Mikes camber plates. Had I not gone a different way I would be using his.
To the OP. Good luck on your build. I have used "locked" (welded) diffs for the past 3 years. I recently bought a car that had a Quaife 4.11 and I will be installing it before the next race. THat gives me a full set. 3.36, 3.54, 3.7, 3.9, and 4.11. I traded a 4.62 for the 3.90 so there are some other ratios out there if you do some searching.
Also, I didn't see but are you in SEDIV?EDIT, never mind I miss the reference to Watkins Glen........I am getting old..........

Paul, which ratios do you use most often??? We were considering locking up our 3.3, and using it at Daytona where we might be able to take advantage of the taller gearing on the banking. We haven't run there yet, so we don't know for sure if the 3.3 will be a help or a hindrance. Also have you had any issues with the welded diff?

"Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car and oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall, torque is how far you take the wall with you."
