Pretty sure I have one with a broken housing. It was out of my BSI built 1.6 which was advertised as a Mazda comp unit but I don't know how to identify. I can send pics if you know what to look for.

Did you directly say, Kuch do you have a MazdaComp L/S? Or, maybe he doesn't want to sell them.

Kyle, who'd he sell them to?
Johnny, viscus L/S are a dime a dozen and don't get the job done racing.

New cusco are availabe.. I just put one in about 3 months ago. I don't know what your plan is for your new 1.6 but the cusco is a worthy investment IMO... Of course if you can source a good used one it is probably your most cost effective option.. I have a couple of VLSDs... You will need one if you want to put the cusco in.. As always... If you can pursuade Mark Bennett to find the time he can set up for you. He put mine together and it is awesome...

Kyle,
Save the stub axles from your viscous diff but throw the diff away.
Like Pat says, if you ever buy a Cusco diff you'll need the viscous stub axles.

I have never dealt with a Cusco diff. With a Mazda Comp diff you need the open stub axles, NOT the Viscous style. Can some one else verify what is needed for the Cusco so future readers have accurate info

Thanks Chris!
If I'm not sure of what I'm saying, I don't.
