Yes, VB-VK used the Salisbury Diff, VK 1/2 (VK and a half) onwards used the Borg Warner 78.

W55 or W58 should handle your 308... start doing some decent mods and you will blow them... If you want to put a strong Supra 5 speed in your car get a R154 Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
