Get first hand practical experience first and then you know for yourself
there is marked difference. Get a lot of experience and you'll find that
whether
it's a ZF, Gripper, Trannex or whatever clutch plate diff they are all much of
a muchness. Get some experience of a Torsen, a Quaife and a Phantom Grip and
you'll see that they are a different kind of a much of a muchness.
I'haven't found a ZF site with the info I am looking for but now I have a
printer/scanner I might get chance oneday to scan some info I have if I can
find
the info.
The welded diff acts a lot like a Torsen/Quaife only it doesn't care if you
have zero grip such as when you lift a wheel. If you drive it on the street one
wheel will skip or snatch and if there is no background noise you can hear
this - a car at the Autocross at Sprite Spree 2003 had a welded diff and I
could
hear a wheel skip when it turned slowly. A trained ear can guesstimate the
setup ratio of a diff - I heard speculation of this nature 3-4 years ago when
the LeMans Bentley was driven out of the pit lane garage.
