Default make sure you find (and use) a 3.89:1 V8 rear diff. i don't know what model it came outta though.
3.6L cars perhaps?

Default Check motorgeek.
I think a few people have used the torsen diff from a V8 with the ring and pinion from the Coupe. I could be wrong.

I believe Elijah has one in his Coupe, I'm not 100% though.

Default He doesn't yet, he's still thinking about it.
I've got one but until I get it on the track, I don't have much to report. I'm not sure I've got enough power for it to matter.

All this 335 talk reminded of something I heard 30 years ago.
