    Sorry George, I jumped the gun. Reading a little further, I found the online reference to the article. on alfamilano.com.
    Thanks,

    I read on the bb that you have an article about shimming a limited slip differential.
    Do you think you could email that to me?

    I ran my diff oil too low and ruined the front pinion bearing. I tore the thing apart and replaced the bearing but have never done this before and am reading all the warnings about how difficult it is to set these up right when putting them back together.
    Any additional info I could get my hands on would be appreciated. The manuals I have don't have enough detail for this. I must not have the right manual.

    Thanks,
    Jeff Thomas

    Hi Bob,

    We were at a SCCA Divisional championship near Kokomo. Unfortunately, the car broke but it's probably just a shift fork bolt in the tranny. Need to get it fixed for the SCCA Solo nationals in Nebraska next month.

    Hi George

    Did I see you dragging your Spider through Carmel today? I'm in town for a tennis tourney at Carmel High School and thought I saw you go by.

    Hi, I really like the look of your car ( big wheels low to the ground) but it seems that you use it for racing. Can what you have done also be used for the road? I'm looking at purchasing an S3. See link to my post.

    Hi Bill,

    I have done the LSD setup and have an article for this - somewhere. I will dig it out later today.
    Your message came in as a "visitor message", rather than a PM. I'm not sure if I am doing the reply correctly so please let me know if you get this.

    George,

    My LSD is shot--Jemison set it up for 55% lock up about 3 years ago. I've pulled it, and am ready to set it up again, but can't find any info about setting it up. Any ideas?

    Right now it is soaking in Purple Power...the Redline oil was pretty much toast, and Richard says the clutches may be glazed. Too much hp for the lsd....

    The wheels are Centerline "Autodrag". Check the Centerline wheels website; the bolt pattern is the same as the old Mustang 5 Liter cars with four bolt wheels. I bought 8 wheels many years ago, and don't have part numbers, but please let me know if you need additional information. Almost forgot, the wheels are 9.00x15 inch with 4 1/2 in. backspace.
