G60 swap questions

[nocones77-vw at yahoo.com (nocones77-vw@yahoo.com)]

The LSD isn't the problem. At all. And if you were to ever manage to blow one up, Quaife has a lifetime warranty (Peloquin too?).

The only problem I've ever had was ripping out 2nd gear, and it was basically my own fault for staying on the gas in a turn when the inside wheel hit some bad washboards in the pavement and caused some nasty wheel hop.

bangBangBANG-BANG!!...crunch......crunch...and........stop.  :-P

Transmissions can be had from $50-$150, depending on what you want, and if you know where to look. So the only expensive part is if you have to pay someone to swap your LSD over to the new box. (which I intend to learn for myself sometime this spring)

And how much whp can one expect a LSD'd 020 to hold
reliably?  For street use? 

I know Neal is ripping out 235 on the track w/ his
020.
