I was thinking that ths would be a pretty good time to change the differential from a locker to a limited slip. I was wonderin if u guys could tell me if u would recommend this and what kind of perfomance gains I might see. __________________ 1998 GT PI cams bbk cai flowmaster 40's catback bbk x-pipe w/ cats march pulleys RAM clutch Steeda Tri-axe

Mustangs came with posi from the factory not lockers. __________________ Speed kills drive an import and live forever. 1991 LX 5.0 H/B 1990 T-BIRD SC
