Barber has a lot of high speed high load right handers, I noticed during around the pits and side roads on the last cool down it was popping, clunking and whining when turned hard at low speeds.


Did I kill it? It had fresh Lucas synthetic with the gm additive in it.

If so what now?

LOL ... welcome to the road of keeping a nice street car nice.

Nothing will surface the weak links like road course duty.

Autox is bad enough to kill diffs in the evil s-10 10-bolt!!!

I have been through 4 different diffs 5 times...all in 2 years of hard autox use...welcome to my hell...

And the noise depends on the diff...if its a torsen, switch the fluid again and just run it. Friend of mine did that and its still working.
