A truetrac is a gear type limited slip differential.
You want a locker for a car that sees street and strip use but will burn up a posi.

Right, his car is a daily driver v6, not gonna mandate a locker and a locker would just be a PITA with driveability in his case, it was more of a personally-directed question as opposed to a broad, any-sitation question.
But with it being a gear type, that doesn't matter at all now does it

Doh.
You got me there.
If it's just a sixer I'm sure a take-off Zexel Torsen or even an Auburn would be up to the task.

Auto X street - T2r

Auburn and Eaton clutch system are better for the drag strip vs the gears of the t2r.
I run Auburns, but the eaton is nice because you can rebuild them.

i think i'm gonna try the T2r anyway in my 10 bolt. if you go on Torsen's website they have cutouts and diagrams of it... it sounds awesome! i cant wait to give it a whirl
