I am slowly getting this car completely prepared to go out road racing and trying to make her as relable as possible. Done the usual things for road racing, wilwood 13x1.10 with 4-pistons up front. A 16g that will stay at 16psi, upgraded radiator, removed a/c, etc. all the usual bullshit.
My question is, has anyone done anything with their manual transmissions. I am "pretty" sure my center diff is ####ed, although a shop owner told me when he drove my car that he thought it might be a 2-way in the rear, BUT he could not be certain without taking it apart. So looking at transmissions just in case, what should I do? Should I just rip out the trans and send it to shep to get a stage 3 rebuild, or should I just rip out the center diff and rebuild it? For road racing am I going to need double synchros and torrington bearings?
I am pretty sure I am putting in a manual transmission cooler setup, just to keep her cool, as I have an engine oil cooler setup going in too.
Whats your experiences?
