stringa,
it wont matter what you do, you will always get fumes in the car with the exhaust stopping there. You will need to get the exit out the back, because you could pass out at the wheel from carbon monoxide poisoning, and a cat would be a good idea as well.

From all accounts the locking ring assembly doesnt engage as far as the old design, and this is where the locker broke, acting like it had a broken cv but it was the locker.

The car is a production class car, stock engine, 35s and the absolute minimum of weight.

The lockoff controller is a safety feature to shut the gas of if the engine stall ie: after a crash, and works on sensing the negative dv pulse from the coil (spark).

I was thinking that i might be able to use the MSD tacho output to give the lock controller its signal and see if that works.

If you use the front locker sparingly and be careful with the way you drive, you can make them last. Be carefull though, if the bell breaks then the ball bearings and shrapnel can destroy the spline on the end of the axle.

My mate races in Production class and he bent (slightly) his moly drag link at Rnd 1, but the weak link is the ball joint, which he broke completely off at the thread. Make sure that you have spares as when you strengthen one part the pressure goes on to the next weakest link.
