Are you sure it says 3.36?

If its a sierra diff 3.62 or 3.38 are more likely numbers.

TBH any of the above numbers will be ok, lower numbers just gives it more legs.

This is usually a question that gets lots of "I'll have it if you don't want it" answers. So wheel/tyre/usage dependant , but yes.

I think that its good, Marc at MNR recommended the 3.38 for ours and if yours is 3.36 it will have slightly more top end speed but this is marginal. I think there also non lsd like most but that bit you'l have to check

Yes it does say 3.36 and also confirmed buy the guy who built it and i bought it off.
It is the non LSD version and i am running 15" wheels with 195-50-15 tyres.
I am using it for mainly road fun but may do the odd track day

Thanks

If it is the 3.36 its most likely to be the 7.5" unit as fitted to the granada's,in this size and ratio they do both the lsd which was fitted to the scopio 4x4's,and the standard diff,which was fitted to the rest of the granada range.

Thanks for the info guy's

I was thinking of changing it to a LSD Cossie type.

Do you think i shoud stick with what i have?

Thanks

Depends really,its a good ratio,but depends if your going to use the car for, any serious track work,then in my opinion I would not be without a lsd.
