[Shotimes] LSD Conversion KIT for the SHO? Any comments?

[Donald Mallinson]

Frank,

The type mentioned in your link is pretty well known to not 
work, and be bad for the life of your transmission.

The $1200 for the Quaife plus labor)  is a bargain if you 
love your MTX SHO, want to do any aggressive driving or 
racing and don't want an unplanned failure.

I am seriously considering putting in a Quaife in my '91 so 
I don't have to worry about the tranny.  Kind of like 
welding the cams on a V8 SHO!

When I put the Quaife in my 89 it was a great day.  First 
time on a road race track was a real joy.  Autocross too. 
Don't buy it for drag racing so much, but it helps in snow 
and the big reason is so you don't have to worry about the 
diff taking out the tranny.

The LSD you mention in the link, probably does NOTHING to 
help prevent the locating pin failure that takes out our 
transmissions.
