I will be setting up my steering soon. Does anyone know if the castor angle should be changed when running a LSD. I was going to start off with 5deg and see how it goes.

Not sure. A heavier preload LSD is heavier to steer. But i dont know if you need to change the castor angle to counteract any steering heaviness. I don't have much info on my diff. I found a scrap of paper in the pile of receipts that came with the car. It has "LSD 80psi" scribbled down on it. So i am assuming it is an 80psi preload Salisbury LSD.

It will be light as long as you don't back off the throttle :)
