  1. Thanks,Would shafts be the same?Also can I rely on finned diff. Cover.
  2. I looked around and found conflicting info.Does anyone know for sure.I have a chance to pick one up cheap and was hoping I could use the diff to upgrade my open r200 with stock half shafts.If it is not a clsd would it still be a 4 pinion stronger version with better shafts?thanks
  3. Yes,that's it. on my car I have the seam and I'm real happy that it came stock that way.Great way of telling that a car has had work.Is there any benefit to welding the seam besides a cleaner look? thank you
  4. on a 1971 240 z Is there suppossed to be a seam between the rear quarter panel and under the door?I have seen cars that were supposed to be original with and with ought them.Thanks
  5. Thanks, that's good to know.no clunk.Is there a rule of thumb as far as choosing the right gearing between rear and tranny for best 1/4 mile times.Should tires start to spin at certain rpm or is the goal to minimize spin at all cost?to no one suprise I'm a noob but would like to set car up to be as good as it can because I'm hoping to get it to the track when time and $ allows me.Thanks.Yes they were 2"
  6. Thanks,that's what I assumed but not ever changing out gears before I didn't realize how much of a difference it would make.I thought the extra grip would handle the extra torque.there is a slight wine in the new diff so that might not be a bad idea.Wish I knew if my 1/4 mi. times are better but never been to the track.Is the slight whine normal with a gleason unit?
  7. I have a 71 240z with 383 sbc.I just recently replaced an open 3.54 diff. With a 3.7 gleason torsen LSD .To my surprise on hard takeoff my tires spin way easier than they used to.I also installed 15/8 shorty headers replacing ram horn style .I was wondering what you guys think? is it higher gearing or the headers.I was always very surprised at how well it used to hold the ground and I was hoping for even better results and now I have to keep the rpm below 3500 or I just start spinning .I have a muncie m20 4 speed.Thanks for thoughts and or suggestions.
  8. Hi,im looking to purchase a set of long tube headers to fit my nordskog competition v8 install in my 71 240 with 383 sbc.I believe it is in the same position as the scarab kit.Also looking for a differential cooler for my r200 torsen lsd.Thanks Tom
