It's all good Chuck you will see it soon, I'll be down there every night this week wrapping it up, should be able to take it home this weekend. I had a feeling you would appreciate my RTV style after what we've seen, the trick is not to use an entire tube on one gasket lol

That diff swap was just a time issue since we couldn't leave our cars that night. I actually just pulled off the 4.08 diff last night and im installing the 3.5/quaife tonight

As for the turbosmart, I'm not sure the reason for switching, they are about the same price, I do know that these are the new model though and are a bit more compact, very good BOV's. I will give it some time for the spring to soften, if it continues to do it I'll just get some different springs from turbosmart.

Hats off to you nick... we gave up on a diff swap yet you tackled this like a Pro... or maybe better? RTV usage seems to be in check unlike some other people we know, haha....

Can't wait to see her in motion...

Also, any reason why GTM goes with turbo smart BOV instead of a tried and proven Tial ? The BOV's you have look exactly like Tials but I guess they are not as Turbosmart is on them, unless that is a Tial ?!? I would def swap the spring though.. I know Tial has springs depending on your vacuum pressure and you get the spring according to that... Tial swaps them for free or sells them for a few bucks... Def with you on surge not being something I would accept as normal..
