Re: Post up if you want a LOCKER for your 12 bolt!!
The only time a Detroit will lock is when it is under torq load. As for the nosie issue you really don't hear anything. I had a a 96 Dodge Ram with 4:56 gears and a Detroit in the rear plus a Trac-Loc in the front. Traded it in for my 2002 TA.

U can install a truck locker in a 12 bolt but I dont know if its a 33 spline,I think theyre 28 or 30 spline based on older GM drivetrains.

The classic detroit locker. There is also a soft locker option out there which is the same but it basically pre-loads the unit so that it engages softer, and there is a racing detroit which has many more points of engagement.
<<detroit EZ locker GM 12 bolt $269>>
This is a newer style that just replaces the spider gears in an open carrier. This is to the detroit as a mini-spool is to a spool.
<<true-track GM 12 bolt $369>>
This is a torsen style posi that is built stronger to be able to handle larger tires in trucks. I don't have any idea how it would work for a sports car though.

Cool, I am happy to see more and more Ls1s in my area. I was debating on moving to Houston or something. I am getting really tired of seeing rice. I have no problem with foreign cars, its those ones that are all rusty and 8 different colors with SUMMIT RACING stickers on them! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" />
