My Getrag G50 Porsche trans is now in my hands, and though I paid less for
it than a US wrecker would charge for a normal G50, I believe mine has a
limited-slip differential (LSD). If so, this is a major copu for me, as I
wanted LSD but couldn't even consider paying for one.

This is because when I turn the output shaft, both drive flanges turn in
the same direction... with an ordinary diff they should tuen in opposite
directions with no load. Am I correct in this?

Sportswagenservice Jacobi had told me they couldn't find 930 CVs. Imagine
my surprise on opening the crate when I found a pair of 930 axles and CVs
staring up at me! No charge! That's a grand-plus $NS I don't have to spend
now.
