This diff is better then the spring loaded diffs the block style for lock up is better for longevity and before you worry about differential transmission needs to be built first before anything the 4L60 Is super weak and doesn’t like anything over 6000 rpm shifts so if you plan on a camshaft or stall converter the transmission needs building or don’t shift past 5900

You could have put the gear oil in before you put the cover on, since you had it opening facing up. That way when your sealant dries, all you have to do is put the rear in back in. This will also test whether your front seal is good or not.
