OBX diff into F23

I'm looking for info on how to clean up an OBX helical LSD to actually be usable in an F23. I've heard of a write-up by JMarks on the J-body forum, but he hasn't responded to an email and the forum registration function is broken, so can't do much to look it up.

I've heard of the belville washer problems, but I've also heard of having to face the end cap down to get it to fit.

I'll be using a Cobalt XFE 3.63 transmission with a Cavalier 2.2 pushrod bellhousing behind a 3900 V6 with a cam in a 1988 Pontiac Fiero.

Thoughts?


Thanks!

Does anyone have a link to any kind of detailed write-up, or do I have to investigate it myself?

Not sure if there is anyone on here currently that has any experience with the OBX LSD. I'm using the Quaife LSD as well at least one other member on here and am very happy with it. But I can't offer any sort of advice on the OBX as I really know nothing about it.
