What a different car !!! I now have the diff securely mounted to the frame with a 1.200" x 3.00" aluminum spacer and a 5/8" grade 8 bolt. The spacer thickness (1.200") was found by making the center line of the pinion parallel to the output shaft of the transmission. Using a magnetic level placed on the u-joint yoke of the transmission the angle was 4 degrees. Then using a wedge, the angle on the u-joint yoke of the diff was made to be 4 degrees (1.200"). The drive shaft is now at 3 degrees, so there is now a 1 degree difference between the parallel trans and diff. No more wheel hop, weird clanking and vibration feeling. Many thanks to Ed for all the help on this project.

PS: Real race cars use ROUND TUBING !! E-M
