Please read I just bought a used 7.5 gov lock 3 series differential out of a 99 camaro. I have a 2002 camaro z28 and I was wondering if it will hold up. My car is about 400 wrp with 3.73 gears and nitto drag radials so what you think? I don't know what type of differential was in my car but it looked strong, it had one big gear in the middle and about 6-8 smaller gears around it. I gave it hell and never had any problems with it. The only reason it's broke is because I hydroplaned my car backwards into a curve at 50 mph which broke some pinion teeth off, and shoved the axles into the differential. I like to dirve my car hard so do you think the gov lock style differential will take the abuse?
Gov-Loc is an older stle posi unit which ingages and disingages using a fly weight. I had one in my 91 RS but that car was stock and didnt have much power, I have heard they they work well in stock applications but i have never heard of anone putting seriouls power through them. IMO the torsen is much better and does not have clutches which can wear away.
