Default GTM Coupe rear diff.

I'm about to try and put a Triumph 1050 tripple engine in the back of my GTM coupe. The bike engine fits best sideways with the drive sproket facing backwards. I Simply want to bolt a rear axle diff in place to pick up of the gearbox output shaft and head out to the wheels. It needs to be small, preferably an LSD and a ratio of anything below 2.5. Anyone have any ideas of a suitable diff?

Thanks in advance if anyone can come up with something. I'm also looking for some rocking horse xxxx as well. One can but ask?

Burty.

Welcome Burty
I've always liked the early mini based GTM coupe's, which one have you got? Don't some quads have LSD's, would they be an option?
