Hmm that makes me wonder. Eric had Many limitations to deal with and I wonder if he was running with the stock Diff? From what I hear carbon on carbon diffs can take one hell of a beating and heat in comparison to normal metal or simi metallic disk packs.

I Love this ****!

BTW, you guys have fun at C&C tomorrow...wish I could make it.

If your compression is bad premix will do this! mazdatrix had me start premixing to band aid my engine until I could afford to rebuild.

That was the only free advice they gave me!

Yeah, Kelly and I had to get to the gym for a class that started at 10:15 and Bryan went to go get his alignment fixed. I'm sure there will be other opportunities to bring it around.
