Never tried it but I have a powertrax locker in my truck. It works great but it will effect handling in the corners a bit. The locker unlocks in a tight turn but on more gradual ones it stays locked up so the tires will wear a bit more on the insides as it drags a bit, but if your aim is to run at the drag then you can't go wrong. The eaton seems to lie somewhere in between mine and a standard limited slip. Seems pretty interesting.

I had one in my Nova.Great at the track and on the street.
I also have one in my Avalanche,and ran a Jeep TJ with the truetrac at both ends. Great unit IMO. Might be a good idea to put one in my Camaro aswell.......

So the eaton is in and we are past the break in time now...I am not sure if I like it...it will do for now until something better comes along. The car hiccups now, bucks when u decelerate. When you turn, it sometimes makes the car hop...going to go for a more aggressive testing run soon and explain my thoughts more.

I'm thinking allot of the issues with the 9" kits we have been selling have been with the Eaton, the GTO guys are also having trouble with the Eaton from the design to the dimension that holds the axle not being right. Last week i sent a factory diff to Autotech/Wavetrac so they can make one for the car.
