look at you talking about your build again.

In unrelated news, your fiance has good thighs. No homo or anything, but, good strong thighs is a sign of a good wife. bless you!

 

only the stallion would notice something like that
went back and looked: yup, he's right.

Serius tho. 95 block = 90-99 thrust bearing right?

 

I would expect so. Can't you just look at it and see?

Also, isn't it 90-00, not 90-99?

Yes. The zeros are confusing.

95 block is still in the car. VVT blocks are still assembled. I need to clean the garage before I take anything important apart.

 

I drilled the hole where that dude said to so it barely cleared the starter. **** would pump out a quart of oil in 3 auto-x runs.

 

Id highly suggest using a vvt block, but if you don't, I have 3-4 brand new thrust bearings, you're welcome to have one.

 

Why VVT block? I can get oil out of the stock location for VVT. And then have an oil port for the turbo.

 

Got tired of doing "cool" stuff to my car. So i did gay stuff.

Thanks. Embedded has been coming and going. I can never tell if I need to do the yt tags or if it will parse.

 

the IB staff got drunk and broke the embed feature yesterday. it's not your fault

 

I've been toying with the idea of a getrag conversion down the road. After selling a torsen its surprisingly cheap. And the getrag diffs are just dirt cheap. Joined a couple local groups to try and snag one for super cheap, but the going rate is like $300 or something in the junkyard. Found one in NC for $150 the other day.

Axles would be the expensive part. Isn't too hard to just go get a driveshaft shortened.

3.73 would be nice.

Wow, the 3.42's are everywhere. I just found 3 within 100 miles for less than $200.

 

What kind of a diff is in it?

 

I believe its a g80 clutch type.

G80 is the order code. I'm reading more. Thought i might have seen that it was a torsen type at one point

 

Looks like they are clutch-type and can indeed be had for cheap

Getrag Differential Conversion - V8 Roadsters $1500 + diff for a plug-n-play solution

 

The real question is whether the OEM clutch-type is any good.

 

If its anything like the 7.5-8.5" 10 bolt G80s, it fuking sucks in all regards.

 

I'll just slap a Detroit in it.
