It'll be biased about 75:25 acceleration:decelleration on the ramps, fairly light preload as we need enough spring travel to compensate for a fair amount of pack wear (the fiddle brakes eat the clutch packs in diffs)

No, I don't think one would cope with the heat either.

Re: My daily and the weekend toy - warning, get coffee. And

Viscous diffs tend to suck in heavy use applications, I know MX5 ones very quickly become an open diff due to wear. Hence me running a Torsen

Yep, they also don't cope very well with fiddle brakes, which is why we aren't running a Torsen either.
