Tru Trac in a 12 bolt?

Tru Trac in a 12 bolt?
Has anyone tried this set up? I see they now have it for the 33 spline axles as well. From what I gather the Tru Trac is durable and is good for the Auto cross/ Road Race crowd and not to bad for the occasional 1/4 mile pass.
I'm putting a 415ci LS2 in my car, I currently have the an Eaton posi in my Moser 12 bolt but I do Autocross and 1/4 mile duty. So any input would be greatly appreciated.

It may seem like I'm advertising for Detroit locker(but they do have a solution), they have a 12 bolt locker comming out and have a helical gear posi. Check it out.

My car has an Eaton Posi, I'm very happy with how it held. I just discovered O have a gear swap problem with this carrier unit. I have a 4 series carrier in my Moser with a 3.73 gear, on my current set up I need to step down to a 3.42 gear. The problem is the 3.73 gear is the lowest you can go with this carrier
Anyone want to trade a 4 series for a 3 series Eaton posi?

I just finished installing the Moser 12 bolt in my car, and I've 50 miles on the True Trac. So far, it seems pretty smooth around corners. I'll let you know more when I can really get on it.

I was thinking about going to this Tru Trac. Its suppost to be pretty strong from what I've heard. I wish there was someone who has had it and tried it in a true test i.e. 5500-6000 rpm launches on ET Streets or ET Drags. If it can hold up to that then I'd get it.

Well, I have one in my Cutlass. 8.5 axle with 3.73 gears. 5k RPM clutch dumps at the strip with M/T drag radials dead hooking. I could not like the True-Trac more. The car is my daily driver, 15k miles over the past year since the axle install, zero problems. I wish all aftermarket parts worked this well.
