    5.0 head and cam combinations????

    that would likely work well, given that you have the cobra 1.7 rockers. you may even get by wit the the tfs stage one cam. i have that cam and head combo with 1.6 rockers and it's sounds deadly, and goes good too. if you opt for the trickflow cam you will have to check piston to valve clearance.

    Rebuild Trac lok or buy new differential?

    the point of a new diff. is that the spiders etc are usually an upgraded material, the cluthes/cones are superior than oem. an auburn uses a cone type clutch that works very well at equalizing traction, the only downside is that once they are worn out, they cannot be rebuilt. an eaton posi uses...

    excessive TV pressure

    if you drop the pan, you will find the spring that is used to hold the tv lever back. sometimes it pops out of place if the valvebody has been tinkered with, it sits in a groove on the separator plate. hope this helps.

    Rear End Girdle.

    rtv is by far the best sealer. it never leaks if its put on properly. the same cannot be said for gaskets. i've built many chrysler fwd trannies, anytime i used gaskets, they leaked eventually. rtv came on them from the factory and it never leaked, so that's what i use....and it doesn't leak.
