The old live axle's seem to be pretty tough, too. When I was autocrossing, there was a local guy who ran the stock diff i his 355 V8-powered FB. Don't go drag racing and you might be OK.

He hasn't seen us at the Louisiana race^

T-minus one week until we leave for Decatur to race...

We have a few things to button up. Anyone want to help this weekend on a few projects we have left on the car?

Do any of you Lemon's guys have a spare differential layinh around that I could buy off of ya?? Its for my black convertible 302 powered RX-7. We blew ours at Eagles Canyon. We are looking for an Auto or turbo rear end. (But I'll take anything I can get!) Please PM me if you have a diff, or can point me in the right direction!
Thanks!

^^^ Booooooo 302.

Japan2la.

Look into getting the turbo axles too. The turbo axle stub bolt pattern is a little different. The splines will slide right into the vert hubs tho.
