Jack. I have a 1 piece driveshaft, with a 3.42 rear end. Not sure on your setup, but this may make a noteable difference? My experiance is the opposite with my T-5 transmission. With 235's in the back whether wet or dry 1st and 2nd gear will go up in tire smoke throwing the @$$ end all over the road. In wet weather add third gear to the useless bunch. With or without posi, if I take it easy I do okay. If I try to drive 'normally' when its wet I'll spin regardless. I think the multiplied torque of the 3.42 ratio offsets the power robbed that it takes to spin both wheels instead of one with 3.23's. I seem to spin two as easily as I did one.
The problem with posi is like I said, but as I re-read what I wrote, I don't think I explained it that well.
A posi rear will keep the rear end straight, only allowing the rear to fishtail under lateral force, not acceleration. But when you do have posi, then you are suseptible to both lateral oversteer and powered oversteer. So depending on how much gas you give it, Posi may or may not help you make traction - or better to say, help you keep control of the car.

Good point...and I can still spin them with the 3.23's, but instead of drift to the right, on flat ground of course, the car stays straight. I did notice that I had to try harder to get them to spin, I figured it was because of the amount of traction afforded by two driving tires instead of one.
The 3.42's will be in after a few more months, but I already know they will spin easier.
