Just in case anyone's interested.

- GT LSD w/914 ring 24 lbs
- Open diff w/914 ring 18 lbs

Why? Because one of you wants to know. Ok, maybe I'm the only one.

Run the open diff......lighter IS faster.....

Then on my car with the open diff it gets faster (lighter) and faster (lighter)?
.... as the inside rear tires keeps getting lighter and lighter as it spins and burns off rubber?

.... but with an LSD "I" would be lighter and therefore faster since my wallet would be about $1500 lighter?

A TBD might. Leider an LSD makes you float to the tune of about $800 more than that. That's hot-air balloon time!

What a useful word!
