That got your attention.

Now that I have the exhaust, trailing arms, and fuel tank removed from my S1, it seems like a good time to drop the transmission and install a limited slip differential (LSD) and some polyurethane differential supports. Does anyone have an opinion on the benefits of handing for the S1 with one installed?

Tag on the diff. says 856G HB 364 4A7F 10

This is a local source that appears to have an interesting product.

Here's the new limited slip from MC2 Racing with ring gear attached. I went with the Detroit True-Trac unit.

Output shafts machined, cleaned, and painted. You can see the one on the left has been machined while the one on the right has a spacer added. Machining Work done by Chris Grayson at MC2 Racing.
