Torsen? Which way does it go!! And a T-5 Speedo?

I bought a like new Torsen differential out of a 2001 Trans AM to install in my 92 RS, I noticed the center piece that you remove to install the axles can be installed two different ways and I was wondering if if really mattered what way it went??? I would think if it mattered it could only be installed one way. I also bought some 3.42 gears to replace the 3.08's that came in my car and I need a new speedo gear for the VSS in the T-5, and after reading the Sticky up top I still don't know for sure what gear I need, I think a 19 tooth If I can find one, does anyone make them new yet for the VSS cars?

The paddle can be installed in any orientation from what I have read. I installed mine exactly how it came out.

I also believe it goes either way....although as mentioned I installed it the way it came out!
