That's good news, were you able to measure the bolt circle pattern on the output flange?

114 minus 10 (assuming you measured outside to outside of bolt holes) would be a 94mm 930 CV pattern.....extra win.

No such luck, measured the outside to outside, then subtracted the bolt diameter. Also held a 930 cv up to it and not even close. Those numbers were actual center to center.

Ok. I see. I thought it may be a 934 CV, but those measurement don't match either. 934 cv's use 12mm bolts.

Was up under my LS swap and checking a few measurements, the Ax15 or later Solstice/Hummer 5 speeds would fit.

Got an email from Oz Chuck on his conversion. Great job on it if you haven't seen it.

A lot of those diffs were biting the bullet and blowing out from under the GTOs. Hence the reinforced cover to try to reduce flex and deviation. I don't recall whether that was the whole deficiency or not though, I didn't get quite that deep into my '04.

The anecdotal track record for Torco performing well quieting and preserving those pumpkins is part of where I got my affinity for their gear oil.

Finally got started on mounting the rear end. Managed to get halfway there. Built a mustache bar to mount the back side. Still working on the front mounts. Had to take a break to work on the blue car. In case you're wondering, yes I cut out the rear floor. More on that later.

Looks like the RX7 diff would be a good candidate too. Are you going to build a aftermarket tank enclosure?

Would be good to know the teeth count on the output shaft reluctor wheel/s also.
Will you run the VSS?
