    Default Purchased parts to start a build what is this?

    I bought many parts to convert my formula Continental to F1000 only to have my builder completely flake on me. I am looking to sell what I have left and don't even know what this is, only that is cost me $2,500. Can someone fill me in.

    Thanks.

    That's a (chain drive) differential. Doesn't look like any of the usual ones I've seen before from Quaife, Taylor or Williams.

    It is one of my Variloc F1000 diffs. It can be either fully open or mildly limited slip, depending on the internals. This was the standard diff for the Citation FBs.

    Who did you get this from? It may or may not have had a couple minor upgrades that make it easier to install and fill with oil.

    Thanks. I'm pretty sure I bought it somewhere out of Texas. It was at the suggestion of the guy who was doing my build.
