Well I've got a manual V8 that comes with the well know Ford limited slip differential, and mines solid as a rock, hell I bought one for my sixer along with 3.73 gears before I got rid of it for the GT.

your car would be lucky to dyno 200rwhp and 250ftlbs. please get that thing dyno'd and post the results so you can realize that you have a car that is barely out of splitport territory
i broke 3 of them with no more than stock 98 cobra power.
ask alot of other V8 owners or for that matter ask some gear shops with stang experience. the 8.8 has always known to be weak in stock form and so is the 7.5 either stock open of T-lok ( which is a stock replacement part for bronco II's and rangers with 7.5 T-lok option)

Dude, when are some of you gonna realize that it's not all about hp, but torque goes also goes into consideration. And it's not like I don't know that car would be lucky to break 200 rwhp, but that car will give a good majority of people a good run, it's also not like I'm keeping it the way it is, I've already got new headers on the way to replace the stupid hooker headers that are causing me such problems, and a trickflow intake will not be too far off, and hopefully neither will a head swap. You know, I love how a few of you keep trying to bash me because there are a handfull of sixers on here that can smoke me, but what are you gonna say once I mod out that engine, and another thing, it's not like I wanted that car to begin with, if I recall I wanted either a 98 Cobra or possibly a new edge GT, but I settled on what I can afford, sorry for the short rant, but this is getting on my nerves? Please stop the "know it all post" cobra and think about what you say before you post, because you're starting to tick people off. You've contributed a lot to this forum, but the past two weeks you've seemed very jumpy and quick to bash people and saying things that I know you know aren't quite 100% accurate. Also, last time I checked, my possible 200 rwhp vs a splitports 150-160 rwhp is a pretty big difference.
