[Spits] 79 Differential in a GT6

6 holes for a GT6 or early spit fixed spring; later spits with the  
swing spring had the 4 holes.  All 3.89 diffs I've seen have 4 holes,  
as they are swing spring cars, all 4.11 early spit and 3.27 GT6 diffs  
have 6 holes, as they were fixed spring cars.


Thanks

Ooh, good question.  The Spitfire used only 4 studs.  I can't recall
whether mine had 6 holes.  If the casing has all 6 holes the unused
two might be filled with gunk or rust.  In any case, it is easy to
swap the pumpkin.
