Differential parts compatibility - DISCUSSION

[StoneWheelRacing]

Thanks Living Legend for that summary on your install. Helps alot. I'm researching info to do the same.

Do you (or anyone else) know of anyway to tell the difference between the medium and small case just by seeing the case itself. I know its easily known if you know the model and engine size and possibly cover shape etc... but what about when just seeing the gear case itself? Is the ring gear actually larger in diameter?

Thanks to a CoolJess76 post from wayback I know I need the following;
E24 3.46LSD from a 5 speed 6 cylinder car. (Possibly a bit lower 3.25 from a E24 for a but more top end)
E30 cover, half shafts, output flanges, speed sensor. Any other suggestions?

AND I'm looking to buy all this right now.
