no dynomat. I have a basic black engine pad in the engine compartment. Perlon lightweight carpets. No sounds insulation. Twin plug motor with 2 in 2 out M&K exhaust. Car rumbles. In a fully stock car I could see the gear whine being out of place and becoming annoying. In a hot rod to my ear it's a sound that belongs there. I was being totally serious when I said that I really like the sound of the gears working. Modern cars are so isolating from everything that I wan't all of the sounds and sensations in my 73 to be raw and unfiltered.
I also had Guard do a LSD for me and I've been happy with the quality of everything I sourced from them. Matt was helpful figuring out gear ratio's for my build and I'm happy with the selections he spec'ed out for me.
