Yeah you will notice the difference it creates more rear grip on power without losing steering! so you can make your car more agressive without that he's going to throw with his ass like the old hubs do!

Default parts to run lower internal drive ratio/short WB

So if I am looking to lower my internal drive ratio for 10.5, I would need what parts? I do have two 36t diff pulleys, but are people running the optional center pulleys too? Do i need to get smaller belts to make up for the smaller diameter pulleys? and belts and bearing holder to shorten my rear wheelbase?

Everything is in the manual what you need for all those internal ratio's.

maybe not what parts, but what ratios are people running? what about belts? there aren't optionals listed, and you mentioned a serpent belt.

I am confused about what effects raising and lowering the roll center blocks do for handeling. I get two different answers. I was told that raising the roll center blocks takes traction away and lowering them give you traction. But then I heard the opposite. Can someone clarify it for me please.

The idea is that the 1mm lower drive shaft gives you more rear traction I beleave is the point Ollie is trying to make and HenBeav is saying that your able to change angles of ballstuds up or down to make or take away rear bite

Thats not always the same effect on every track you need to test that!

Regarding the new diffs, do they use the thrust bearing assembly? or use the flanged bearing, cone washers, and metal nut that just comes in the new diff kit packages?
