Yea you need a stronger diff m6 cars are so hard on diffs I know an auto car that has the same thing you do and makes 750rwhp and it holds together just fine.

I was reading a little on the 4.33 gear as well. Any experience switching from a 3.91 to a 4.33?

May be another silly question but does the 4.33 fit into the stock housing Cause the 3.91 were close

4.10s and 4.33s (if I recall), are likely weaker than 3.91s--fewer teeth.

Sound like backlash might have been too big and main cap stretched as we see so often. Now that it broke the Ring gear, you must check the diff for run out because they can bend when braking a ring gear. Ted.

I had the 4.11 richmonds in a diff I bought used. The spider gears in the stock diff let and the gears looked fine. Bought an Eaton and had another set of richmonds sent out to liberty gear for metal enhancement process and then to RPM transmissions for assembly.
Haven't had any track time yet as I'm waiting to install axles, driveshaft, and clutch all at once. I'm hoping that slipping the clutch will allow it to live. If I had to do it all over again I'd go with a 9" since I've invested thousands into a setup that isn't bullet proof. The difference is probably less then $1,000 There's a set of 4.11's for less then half price in the classifieds. http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=447402 Last edited by Irnwkrkev; 04-20-2016 at 09:19 PM.

You guys referring to the 9" are you talking about the 9" for irs or a solid axle 9"?
Just wondering what the cost of a 9" irs set up would be over a solid axle setup. |

I would just buy the same diff. your power level isn't extremely high so I don't really think the zl1 is necessary at this time unless you have a good chunk of cash in hand laying around and your really serious about the drag strip.

Ted, I did install your billet caps as well as an lpw cover and the lash was right at .008 now you saying to check diff for runout because of chance of bending. Could you please explain how I can check that?
