I ended up driving it across the country on the cracked fin then it got replaced by a 37R.. that seems to have fixed it :)

I think I have another fun project coming up... I've been wanting to build a P-port for a very long time! Now I have a little more free time, I've started doing some analysis of port geometry and timing and I may know of a caged out miata that is in desperate need of a couple 100 extra horses..

Nice. I'd love to get mine painted. Is this all happening at your brothers on the east coast or here?

Here's an update pic....

that would be pieces of the differential that were scattered around WV... apparently the car jams out pretty well on 12lbs.

Is down here in TX. Im guessing in the one from factory so its got around 100k miles. I dont think it matters on open diffs. Is working just fine, no noise nothing. I also have a Diff Case but that sucker is very heavy shipping is going to be off the wall.

I went with a T2 Diff with 4.44 gears, PFS Cradle and Banzai Brace plus Poly Bushings.
