Guys who have put lots of power into the powertrax find they unlock right when you need them the most. The Auburn has cone type clutches that "bite" into the case, wearing both out. Lockers belong in the dirt IMO and limited slips on the street, but for my money I'd run an Eaton rebuildable positraction unit. I've been looking for a used limited slip from an 87-89 300ZX turbo for over 2 years for my Z. They run over $500 used. A new one is $550 IF they'll ever get them in stock. So consider all of your options a blessing!
