Dont throw those NA rears out just yet! Very lax 60 foot, but let it spin with some sidewall cushion and she will last, at least for a season! Wonder if this is some sort of record. 
Car is a TII, but using an NA rear end because of the driveshaft mounting flange. It aint broke (yet) so Im not fixing it!

Open diff or LSD?
I got about 50 launches or so out of my NA open diff before the spider gears stripped. Everything else is fine...I'm sure a LSD would work better. Once you get the LSD though it seems to put a lot more stress on the transmission and that pops next. I considered the open diff a "fuse" because you would break traction before it would load up enough to hurt the transmission.
