I saw a couple of pics. It looks like the line is coming out of the drain plug and the pump is mounted to the rear frame cross support. What tap holes would be needed to my case design??? |

I think the reason these cases are tweaking is cause of the wheel hop. once we have a case that will withstand any wheel hop, or 100 redline side steps, we'll find the next weakist link in the assy. then and only then can we move on to the next problem. This is the price we have to pay when our "foot" is heavier than our entire body!!!! |

I can send you the install instructions if you PM me your email.
The kit uses AN6 fittings on all the lines.
To connect lines to the case, custom made metric-AN6 adapters are used.
IMO - You would not want to plumb the lines as the kit does.
I think it would be best if you added new AN6 taps for the exit and return line and left the existing drain and fill plugs as they are.
That would make it easier to drain and fill the diff without having to disconnect lines.

I have the Corvette clutch packs and Cryo gears/case and and it's great so far.
When I get this new case, I want to also swap to 4:10 gears.  |

Boy, I can't wait to see how this shakes out!
BTW, The CTS-VR team did something with the cups as well. I am going to shoot an email to find out what else they did and I will let you know if your curious.
