    Just wondering if a '94/ '95 ish BMW 540i V8 would be likely to have a limited slip diff.
    I'm Considering buying one of those and if it already had the LSD that'd be a bonus, seeing as i'm a big fan of going sideways. I would greatly appreciate if someone could tell me if BMW Made a LSD for it or if there's anywhere else i could get one. It's Far too nice to just weld the diff. I mean , i'd do that to a sierra or carlton but not the beemer. I'd actually want it to last a good while and still be able to turn normally.

    that more likely i suppose. Ah well, maybe i'll just weld that sh1t solid. Or just not bother with the b*stard thing.
