    That would be an oddball one, I thought the 3.9 only went behind the petrol autos. I might have a 4.1 LSD rear and open front I could sell you soon.

    Yeah mine are tall on the revs, which is why I would be happy to go up a ratio, but the EGTs like it. I figure turning diesel into heat rather than traction is a waste.

    Yea its a very oddball one. Factory turbo, manual and 12v with 3.9 diffs. I quite like the 3.9s as I get just a little extra wheel speed as I have plenty of power, just harder on the clutch doing slow tricky stuff.
