The factory posi don't cut it for hillclimbing. Anybody have advice on one that would actually lock when I need it and give when I need it? 3:42 ratio

Do you know if you have a zt or an auburn? Auburn (clutch type) would probably work better.

Im curious what the problem is with hillclimbing. Id expect both types to lock in that scenario

(Please tell me you are climbing in an fbody because that would be awesome. ).

Yes I hillclimb a 01 z28, full cage and on koni double adjustables and bigger away bars. The class I run in doesn't allow a full locker. At the moment I'm running the factory posi. In a burnout it works fine but on some steep turn midway through it will just peg leg and kill my time. I try to give the wheel a little jerk and sometimes Itl lock posi and go other times it won't?

I have the Eaton clutch type posi in my car and I will never run a different type of LSD in my Camaro. ALWAYS get both tires going regardless of what kind of stupid crap I am doing. I love it.

Detroit Lockers work wonderfully. And they drive just fine too, regardless of what the interwebz trys to tell you.

^^^Agree, as even the SCCA GT-1/Trans Am road racers have used them for decades (HAVE to by their rules).
BUT, his class rules just do not allow them, so he has to find another way to get around those steep, decreasing radius, hairpins on the Pagoda/Weatherly (and other) area hillclimbs.

I would suggest the high bias (4:1) Torsen T2R, but most road racers have had problems with their cases cracking under high g, sticky Hoosier R6/real road race slick stress lately, unless Torsen has solved this problem??
