To quote, Rally Design are official European importers of Blackline Tools the makers of the Blackline LSD. It says very little about the type of LSD and as to the quality it could be anything knowing what RD sell. I would hazard a guess it's made in the Far East.
oh that could be one to avoid then!
You need to do a bit more Home Work before committing. What's the difference in price to a 3J Driveline one?
I am not sure, Ive only just started investigating an lsd I know I cant seem to find an original ford one as fitted to the 2.8is capris so need to find out which is a reasonably good one but not qauife price!!
Go 3j or proper zf for now
Have hear very good reports on Gripper LSD's
cheers guys I will check them out!
Titan also. I use one since 2011, no issue, they are very helpfull. They also do the service.
have one in atlas and one in english axle.
Just building my atlas and was told to use the gripper
Would ther be different considerations when selecting an LSD for a track/race car?
Suggestions

The Blackline "LSD" isn't really a true LSD at all - it is an Automatic Torque Biasing (ATB) unit.
As mentioned already above if you want a proper, high quality LSD go for ZF, Gripper or 3J.
Also beware of statements like "minimal maintenance" in ATB's as most I see are worn out in areas that are so expensive to repair - the casings and 12 helical gears - that it makes sense to buy a unit that uses clutch plates as they are usually far cheaper to service.
