Project Traction.

I made some engine mods last year, a lot of little things, and fine tuning to hopefully be significant enough to have a noticeable improvement at the track. The results seemed to be that it was much easier to spin off the line and I had one of my slowest 60' ever.

So, I have made the upgrade to limited slip sooner than planned. Moser axles and center section, true trac differential. Should be strong enough for the turbo motor, when I get to that and absolutely bullet proof with the current motor. The ratio is still the same, 3.70:1 so that the only significant change is the differential.

Traction is a lot better on dry pavement and slightly better on wet. Hopefully that will translate to more consistency, better 60 foots and lower et's.





I made a holder to use with my transmission jack. This is a prototype, proof of concept Wink I'm sure I can make it better and it will probably work better with a normal, typical shop floor jack.



Also installed a drain plug, applied some epoxy to hide my gnarly weld and ensure that it is leak free. So far it is leak free.
