    my 92 model 5 speed had 3.42 but it was behind a V6. Do a trutrac posi. Auburn and Eaton clutch type posi diffs have died in mine.

    well i have a 350 with only 400 at the crank. I might run a d.r. a few times a year at the track..you think i would be ok with auburn or eaton style? ive seen a lot on ebay that are in my price range. how much are the trutracs..im assuming they are more bc everyone runs them. thanks

    they're not much more if any more expensive. We have a site sponsor, ron's, that gives members of this site a really sweet deal on purchases from him. I believe he gives free shipping but don't quote me.

    most like the trutrac due to it not having clutches to wear out. I tried the clutch type diffs twice and have been very happy with the dependability of the trutrac. Guys kept telling me to get one and after killing the two clutch styles I'm glad I went to the trutrac?
