diff locker in the SPG

Got the diff locking unit installed last night. This is the adjustable unit. A bit of machining was required - the faces of the spider and the side gears were cut down for enough clearance. The centre pin also required a hole to be drilled for the adjusting bolt on the diff locker. Finally, about 5mm had to be taken off the ends of the stub axles / inner drivers to clear the diff locking unit's sides. Fortunately, all of this can be avoided if the tranny has the older specification diffs, up to -86 from what I understand. Modifications to the units for a slightly easier install may be on the way. All of the machining can be done 'hackspeed' style with a belt sander, so it's not too onerous - though I left the job up to my engine builder / machinist.
Engine back into the car last night, now need to hook everything up again. Unfortunately, won't be able to give much in the way of impressions for about 500-1000km - the distance the clutch disc manufacturer recommended for break in. And the engine will need some remapping for the new GT30.
Another pic to follow.
