For people who don't know I kinda mess uo with stock posi two weeks ago because I was on Quaker city OH track and that track was WERY sticky so I was tryin launch from 3000-5500 but still bog down realy bad ,so I decide try on 6000 and gess what It works for me , bogs little bit until I reack power band 3k, BUT that was too muck for stock differential so clutches in diff mess up and I have a lot backlash in spider gears and that was horible drive on street on low rpms and low speed , it was bucking realy bad
So I decide to get Eaton 31 spline and Superior 31 spline from SummitRacing.com and today I and my friend mechanic swap new diff and axle in less than 2 hrs, we did 8000 backlash and biggest problem was ABD rings but we use torch and heat them up little bit so they come off
So now I can launched hard again , trany is rebuilded in february and everything have to be fine, just get new tires and I will be all set, but Notto DRs still have some meat
Tomorrow I will try this new stuff
BTW this differential make just little bit noise(until broke in) and man on corners I just need little bit gas and both tires are lock up and start spinning

Damn, launching at 6k, didn't you think something would break? lol
That's in the back of your mind. The sound of the tires hooking makes that thought go away really fast....

You've gotta love what sounds like a sledge hammer hitting the back of your car when the tires hook...

I think I would be like, "Holy S***! What was the noise!!?!?!" Then at the same time I would be looking towards my rear seat to see if I could "see any damange". Half a second later I would slam into the wall lol.
