[Fot] Limited slip rear ends

[Charly Mitchel]

Speaking of Diffs, I need to get another LSD and would like to get a Tran-x
if possible.  Has anyone looked into buying a lot of them?  I would think if
we could get a commitment for about 10-12 units, we could save a little on
them. These seem to be the only real alternative and they should fit quite a
few different cars.
Anyone else up for this?
