Mk3 have a 8in diff. I believe it will fit but why. If you wanted different gear ratios just get na LSD with the 4.30 gears and swap it in.

Idk for sure if it's a direct fit and work with the LSD or not.

Already have an NA, no lsd though. :( looking to lower my highway rpm cause its around 3500rpm at 70mph plus it would be nice to have a taller gear set if i do an engine swap.

Ya but a 3.91 would be better. I liked the 3.91 LSD a lot more than a open 4.30.

Doesn't really seem worth it to change gear ratios and rebuild the diff and not get an LSD. A whole LSD is like 100-200$ complete pnp.

3.91 LSD and I only ever lost to a 4.6 mustang gt. N/a too. And two bikes, but that's irrelevant lol
