I want good power transfer to the rear

Your profile says you own an FWD vehicle, how are you planning on getting power to the rear end?

EDIT: Just read your avatar. Oops. A center differential Spool or a welded Center diff will give you a 50/50 F/R power split. That will be as good as you can get.
 
Wouldnt this make steering a problem??

Also, from what I understand AWD's have an 80%-20% bias to the front untill there is slip then the diff changes the bias via the viscus coupler (LSD) to 60%40% which is still not good enough IMO.

What would spooling the center diff do for my front to rear bias and can I set it up for a rear bias....say 60% rear 40% front. I know this would be difficult concidering the configuration of the trans. (designed primarily for FWD)

Any Ideas?
 
Yeah Defiant, I meant it would stay 50/50 w/ a spool. Unless I am still misinformed? Please clarify.
