NO omega had an LSD as standard.

Police Manual ones are the best bet of finding one.

it is possible to build one, but you need to start with an Omega diff and a LSD from either a Senator or Carlton GSi

have done five or six now, and numerous axles for other stuff.

BUT it's maybe one subject that I wouldn't be happy writing a "how-to" for - it's just too difficult.

the difficult bits are :-

measuring and calculating the locking factor
setting the pinion heigh ( measuring )
setting the tooth contact

and then again, there's the cost of the parts. to change all of the wearing parts, you're looking over £300.

I do occasionally build them for people, but under specific circumstances only.
