very sick setup! Who makes the kit to install the 8.8" IRS diff?

I'm in SF. Send me a PM as there are bunch of LSx powered FD's in our area. We should all go to Sacramento Raceway as a group and terrorize the trailer queens.

I was a bit surprised at the weight distribution and thought it would be better.
Miata 2588 without driver.
weight distribution is: 54/46

My old LS1/FD (sunroof Touring model) with no a/c or p/s or stereo, heavy dual 3" exhaust with 2 cats/muffs, no spare tire/tools/rear trunk carpet/cover was 2800lbs running a full tank of gas. Weight distribution was 49.5/50.5 f/r.

v8roadsters makes the 8.8 rear end.

its actually 2580 without driver and 53/47. I need to stop fat fingering my keyboard. I really don't know how the other miata guys are getting 51/49 weight distribution. Either way the car still handles pretty well but I need to roll my fender or install my fender flares.

Let me know when you guys go to the track and I'll roll with you guys.
