Re: 900 t16 hi-po, 2nd try Posted by Kevin K [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Re: 900 t16 hi-po engine rebuild, Kevin K ![]() |
mostly agree, except unless he plans on track lapping events, no need for tranny oil cooler and pump hastle, or mazda oil cooler ... just make sure oem is in good cond'n and clean internals with laquor thinner. Main inertia components are f-wheel and clutch pp, a lightened oem fw will make down shifting/heal&toe more responsive and fun.
"Why would SAAB sell ZF LSDs...?" to my knowledge, they never were included as any normal option for street use ... not mentioned in any of my various saab lit from the 80's. roadholding springs were mentioned at one time for off road use only ... ie racing. No oem (except mabe integra) has offered a fwd with anything but a speed related (viscous) LSD, likely set on the loose side. My rwd torsen experience is that wet conditions can encourage 2 wheel lock-up and lateral slide. I think a load-proportional lsd on a fwd is not a universally good thing.
