Thanks Dave for the list of codes for the axle ratios, very helpful.

I would be happy to find a 3.50 or lower gear ratio used center section at a Pick-a-Part. Even without a limited slip it would work until I could afford to step up to a new unit "with a posi". Sorry, but it's going to have some kind of a limited slip rear end in it. It's too embarrasing to do a "one legged" burn out when I'm showing off, LOL.

I have no reservations about using a locker or posi on the street. We drag race a 1600# car with 260 N/A horsepower and then run a 70 horse shot of Nitrous. We have a spool in the car and have broken our share of parts including custom axles without any serious probems.
