There's some confusing terminology here... wtf is a "mechanical LSD" supposed to be? All differentials are mechanical! Rolling Eyes

Reading back through the thread I think you guys are talking about a Detroit-style locker, which isn't an LSD as such. On the other hand you might be talking about helical-type LSD's (aka TorSen) which is an LSD but doesn't contain friction surfaces like clutch and cone type LSD's do.

IMO there are only two options to consider for a street-driven car: clutch or torsen. I don't think you can get aftermarket cone-type LSD's because the cones actually interface with the diff housing; you're only likely to have one of these if you've done a Borg-Warner diff conversion.

Anyway, the pros and cons of clutch and torsen LSD's have been discussed on numerous occasions so I won't bother repeating them here.
