So the guts of a TR7 diff is the same as a GT6/Spit??  What ratios did the 
TR7 come in??

***********************************************
If by 'pumpkin' you mean just the carrier plus spider gears and ring/pinion 
gears than it will work.  If however you include the nose or housing assy 
than it won't be of any use.  The TR7 small diff while looking very similar 
and using the same internals, doesn't have the four cast bosses on the 
casting near the pinion flange end for the tapped holes that secure the 
front plate.  No way to attach the front mounting plate!  You could remove 
all the internals and transfer them to your case - the nose is just dead 
weight (for Spit and GT6 applications anyway)
