Are you still making the change to the bigger Ford rear gear ? if so are you selling the 2.3 rear end?I already have a ford 2.3 In the alpine
They just moved me up to a faster class
I can get a 9" in any length

I was concernef about the size of the carrier and the body and tunnel
The Ford 8" would be the normal response. The only objection I am aware of would be the ratio selection. While ratios covers a large range, they are not many of them. The good news is that would spare you the agony of deciding between a 3.80 and 3.73. You would have choices like 3,55, 3,8 and 4.1. The excellent news is all that is available new and assembled in a center section at a reasonable price.Bill looking for better rear gears and ones that can be changed out at the track, And yes looking for LSD. the tiger rear is just too much for the Alpine and adds to many pounds. just asking what's people have come up with. I do have a LSD unit from a S11 or S3 but would need new axels cut and no wants to make them

Bill .. Couldnt agree more.Michael, it seems to me lsd's are viewed as essential silver bullets. In my view, silver bullets are best fired have you have optimized the probability of hitting the target. There is no reason to have the best of everything if the system is not optimized.
