Posi-Traction- Need I say more? If you ain't got it, get it. I tend to stay away from the cone and clockspring posi's. The clutch, gear and locker types are the way to go. I'll do a separate write-up on the different types:
I enjoyed your article, I will try to keep it and review it further.
I have 3 posi units set up for my car . 373---411---456
I remember back in the 60s a relative had a 427 Fairlane Gt with a 4 speed ,headers and a 456 open rear. He would not sacrafice the horsepower that a posi used up. He was explaining the old for every action there's a like and equal reaction deal to me and he would offset the weight transfer caused by the torque of the driveline with air bags in the rear springs . He could get both tires spinning exactly the same by preloading the springs with the air bags.It must have worked will because back in 1966 --12 seconds flat 112 MPH was fast and he won his class most of the time. Have You ever heard of this??
I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
