I could be totally wrong but I'm pretty sure traction lock comes in GT's and any higher trim. Get one out of an old tbird(?), GT, or order one from ford racing.

86-93 had the 8.8 in rear end with Fords Trac-Lok, a form of limited slip that consisted of a set of clutches, wear out with hard use.

Buy myTurboCoupe and you get a 8.8" rear end with good trac-lok that will spin both tires until your heart is content

Just stock, but the only burnout I did in the car spun both tires the whole time. Not sure if it can be done to these, but my dad can some how make the chevy LSD's grab faster, harder, and tighter. I want to say he puts shims somewhere in them?
