I would have loved to, but we are tearing the car apart right now. Prognosis is not good. Posi exploded, sent a chunk through the cover. Spider gears are exploded, center shaft in the posi is bent. One spider gear is fused against the opening and the posi next to the ring gear, that wiped out the pinion gear which in turn wiped out the ring gear. The axles could spin their respective spider gears but it wouldn't spin the posi and ring gear. That was fused pretty solid. I think that did some damage in the trans.
Output shaft is still firmly attached in the trans. I'm going out now to drop the trans out and look. I think it wiped out parts of the cluster.
Taner, I did not call that number you gave me as I've chosen an alternate solution at this point. Thanks for the info though.

The 11th, 12th, 13th weekend? Yep, I'm definitely going to that one Taner! I'm going with a guy from work and a couple of his friends are going as well I believe.
Now I know I may not have "the fastest" street car, but if I could get my traction issues somewhat straightened out, hopefully I'd be cutting times closer to 12.9 - 13.0, and then I'd be just a little more competitive!?
Well, maybe we'll see ya there?

It's not too bad. It did wipe out a couple gears/synchros and stuff. I'm going to tear the tranny apart later but we can already tell whats up. No damage in the bellhousing though. Have fun at the race.
