In that location, the ignition brick should only be getting radiated heat from the exhaust. The radiated heat can easily be blocked with a piece of sheet metal. I did just that, using some aluminum flashing material from the hardware store. You can cut it with scissors, and attach it to the mounting bracket with a couple screws. Simple and easy.

At least it didn't break the transmission.

I know and I'm great full for that! I found a shop locally that makes a set of axles for the F23 trans but they are pretty expensive. But I think that's the only choice I have now if I don't want to keep having this problem.

Well, at the tracks I run I'd rather break it in my driveway. It'll be a pretty bad scenario if I have to keep the rear end glued to the track accelerating through a turn at 75-90mph and suddenly I loose traction on the outer wheel! That'll be catasthrophic! I'm getting some sponsors together to get the money for the race axles. Mean time these axles have lifetime warranty, which mean as long as I break them I'll get a new one for free!

Also, just go F40 ... You still get 4-speed-like 1st gear and it can take more torque. The only reason I'm breaking CV's is because of the bad HELD design where my splines don't go all the way thru the bearing...

Do they make a kit for the F40? Whats the final drive ratio?

I don't think the transmission is the problem.It will be interesting to see what the LSD looks like when it is apart.
