Make sure you have some sticky rear tires. When my car had its Harrop SC (for 55K miles) about the only tires that would tame the rear axle (the way I drive) was drag radials. However, I do have a revised (shorter) rear end ring and pinion ratio (3:45 Diff). The Quaife LSD can also be abrupt when transitioning from grip to slide. Have fun and remember never to cross the double yellow lines.
