There is a difference in the chassis tubes which I found when changing the exhaust system on mine; even the rear chassis tube which holds the pick-up point for the exhaust is in a different place. After saying this, maybe the diff is an easy change but be careful, cheers John.

Hi Tom,

Have a word with Marc Hockin at Oulton (if you're going) he did a diff swap on his black race griff.
GKN - Hydrotrak I think.
