All this talk about Lockers and Quaiffes.  When I bought my GT6 as a =
race car it had several stock rear ends with, all different raios.  Most =
were partially welded, that is they have some travel before the teeth =
hit the welds.  Experience on the track seems to indicate that this =
allows a better turn-in than one welded solid.  Is this set up: a) safe  =
b)smart  c)dependable d) none of the above?  What alternative do I have =
with the GT6?  The axles look to be off a Datsun.  I'm told that's =
because the stock halfshafts twisted with increased hp.

I asked if anyone knew anything about Cosmic wheels and never heard a =
word about it on the list.  I really like these wheels and I contend =
that they're correct because they came with the car and we've been 15 =
years in restoration.  That makes the almost period correct, no?
