if you want a real locker, that still functions and drives normal get a detroit tru-trac

Right here is your answer.

You just want a locking rear diff. It operates as an open diff until the two axles are spinning at radically different speeds. Then the rear end locks up, and both wheels spin the same rate.

That's what I want to do.

in most cases, yes. if you have a clutch pack posi, sometimes if one tire is on ice for say and the other is on dry pavement, it might not.

I have always done 2 wheel burnouts in my old stang w/ a posi.
