I've been looking on neons.org and turbo mopar and I haven't found any good info about getting a clutch lsd for my Omni. There has been a lot of talk from the neon guys about one but I can't find any info. Just need to know who to talk to and what tranny I need to buy.
Looks like I'm going to just going to stick with 525 for now and weld the diff. I have all the parts to beef it up a little and its going to be a gravel rally car so thats my best option for now.

I emailed him about getting some pics and want to run it by Cliff Ramsdell to see if he thinks it'll fit in one of our tranny's. A 523/568 or a 520/555. Do the rules in your rally class require you to run the stock tranny????????

No rules against tranny. The only restriction in my class is displacement. Thanks guys!!! :D

If it's going into a neon, it should fit in our a520's or a hybrid a555.

That's what I'm thinking "S" but I just wanted our Guru to say yay or nay :) Pricing is at quaiffe levels so you better really want one of these styles of diff.

Without having one in hand to test fit the best answer your going to get is that if it fits a t350 it should fit a 520/523 or a hybrid without any trouble.

Ed Peter's offered a clutch type limited slip. I've got one in my A523.

I just bought a clutch type limited slip from Dave Rose, almost identical to the one in Dean Stillie's rampage. Dave had them custom made and it was his last one. . .

"...Looks like I'm going to just going to stick with 525 for now and weld the diff. ..."

i believe Cliff told me that the Phantom Grip LSD diff. is the only LSD diff. for an A-525, there are no other choices....i have a P.G. LSD in my Ramsdell-built A525/555 hybrid trany in my omni and it works great, dont weld the diff. thats not a good idea.
