    he, he, he yeah you did didn't you Just wish I had enough straight line handling to stay with you coming out of the bus stop.

    Ron, Let me know what Steve has to say. I have the same diff list as you but no 3.36. None of them are LSD all are locked and I have some spares here that I could use to convert to LSD.

    You know what to do.... Give the kids a student loan application and a pat on the back. "Sorry. But Daddy needs a new Sam Neave motor and a couple of LSDs".

    It sucks that you cannot run the 5 speed with OD then you could use the taller truck R/Es 4.37s 4.44s and 4.67s I hear that is the inexpensive way to go. Or run the R200s lots of goodies out there, JDM LSD go 200-600 on the drift/s14-5 pages.

    Sort of funny. I mean, how much longer can a four speed drum braked car be competitive in ITS? Why are we racing it anyhow? It is almost 2010 and this thing was penned 40 years ago, as was I.

    I don't see the problem Ron. Shifting and brakes just slow you down....
