Hey Ricky! No Lsd is available that I'm aware of. There is one that with some grinding of the case and some axle mods can be installed. Gus

I have the same thing going on with mine both tires are loosing traction. I know both are spinning because I see the rubber, hear the squeal and when it is even the slightest wet out from a stop it takes off sideways (to the passenger side). It's not torque steer the steering wheel stays straight.

When the available traction is equal on both sides an open differential will spin both tires on a car with even front cross weights.  The advantage to lsd is that even if one side of the car is in the air (cornering very quickly) the other can still put power down.  For drag racing a lsd is very little advantage, this guy from HMT is putting down 1.6 60 fts with an open diff and a SOHC.
