Question tho, are you planning on a direct drive unit, or some sort of gear reduction (ie a one spd tranny, like some of the first version slipperentials?)
That was a big stumbling block I was running into. A big spur hangs out the bottom or has to have unfriendly driveline angles (for high mounting.) Likewise, a small spur fits nicer, but offers little gear reduction, even with a small pinion. EG, w/ a 10T pinion & 46T spur, on the stock diffs you only get a ~15.9:1 FDR. Not much if you have a heavy savage and big 40 series tires.
Forget about running the Cen diffs w/ their 2.89 ratio. G/L, I hope to see what you come up with.

The savage with 40 series wheels, CEN diffs, and 50:9 slipperenital/pinion garing yield about the same reduction as the stock flux with the stock 44:25 gearing
