differential decision

[tylerrocks]

After searching the archives of stangnet, I am confused (at least im not blind) about my options when it comes to TRACTION. Here is what I want. I want to be able to spin both tires equaly, I dont want a clutch style LSD, I dont want (or want very minimal) ratcheting around corners and parking lots, I want predictability (no 'catching' in mid corner). This will be a daily driver so comfort is of at least SOME concern. I was looking into powertrax 'no slip' units, what do yall think? OH, and this will be in an 8" diff.

Anyone know of a good place to READ about diffrent differential systems and how to build or put them togather?

Torsen style then, Detrioit TruTrac
Powertrax only sells lockers and clutch type units
