I'm running a Quaife unit with a 4:11 (at least that's what Baxter says it is) and I drained the oil (Redline) last week as part of my general maintenance.

RE: Differential Covers (score: 1): Author: Bill Babcock <BillB@bnj.com>; Date: Tue, 3 Sep 2002 12:34:27 -0700; What do you recommend for a cooler--is a finned cover enough or does it need some kind of radiator and circ pump. When you go to that disc type LSD you'll want to add either capacity or a cooler. The; /html/fot/2002-09/msg00014.html (10,263 bytes)

Re: Differential Covers (score: 1): Author: "Kas Kastner" <kaskas@earthlink.net>; Date: Tue, 3 Sep 2002 13:29:01 -0700; I think for short races probably the finned cover and an increaase in capacity would be the ticket. If for anything more than 30 minutes I'd fit a little cooler. Dosen't have to be huge or anything b; /html/fot/2002-09/msg00016.html (11,962 bytes)
7. Re: Differential Covers (score: 1): Author: Joe Curry <spitlist@gte.net>; Date: Tue, 03 Sep 2002 13:42:23 -0700; I am curious how one would connect a cooler to a diff (particularly one on a Spitfire). What troubles me is the fact that there is no inherent pumping action that would force the oil through a cooler; /html/fot/2002-09/msg00017.html (8,896 bytes)

RE: Differential Covers (score: 1): Author: Bill Babcock <BillB@bnj.com>; Date: Tue, 3 Sep 2002 14:48:08 -0700; My plan is to tighten up the clutch pressure until it's working more or less like a locker. I know that it still needs to slip some to go around a turn, but I expect that the high spring pressure wil; /html/fot/2002-09/msg00018.html (12,842 bytes)

Re: Differential Covers (score: 1): Author: Gt6steve@aol.com; Date: Tue, 3 Sep 2002 17:49:25 EDT; Hey Joe, I've been stewing on that point for a long time and I think there is an inherent pumping action.

RE: Differential Covers (score: 1): Author: Bill Babcock <BillB@bnj.com>; Date: Tue, 3 Sep 2002 15:04:04 -0700; I think you're probably right, there should be a differential pressure (no pun intended) between the outside of the case and the centerline of the pinion. I'm not sure it would be enough, but it woul; /html/fot/2002-09/msg00020.html (10,063 bytes)

The AC gear pumps worked well. ( if they still make 'em) If you are a true cheapshate (like me) you can use finned tubes. The problem there is; /html/fot/2002-09/msg00022.html (9,553 bytes)

Re: Differential Covers (score: 1): Author: "Kas Kastner" <kaskas@earthlink.net>; Date: Tue, 3 Sep 2002 16:08:55 -0700; I think you guys are dreaming in trying to use a prsssure from the diff to do the pumping.

Re: Differential Covers (score: 1): Author: Gt6steve@aol.com; Date: Tue, 3 Sep 2002 20:57:01 EDT; If that's the little U tube with fins that appears on everything from fridges to Fords than I think we're talking about the same thing.

15. Re: Differential Covers (score: 1): Author: Gt6steve@aol.com; Date: Tue, 3 Sep 2002 21:08:41 EDT; You're most likely correct. In this day and age an external pump is so simple and cheap it's not worth messing with the experiments.

The big problem with external pumping systems is that they get real fussy. As Kas already pointed out, the pump will be hard pressed to; /html/fot/2002-09/msg00027.html (9,105 bytes)
