Re: little hulk

It is a big heavy unit ,technically its a 9.5 inch but once i trim the housing it will be a lot lighter and the point of it all is the mitsubishi hybrid helical lsd ,there awesome ,best lsd made and heavy duty as with heaps of different ratios

Re: Another astron build

Thanks for the offer
But problem is that a magna is only 8.2
Im going to fit flat tops and using a m5 head but factory it measures 74.5 cc so there's going to be a shitload of welding to make the comp cambers small enough to make 11 to 1
