Wow, that is a twisted sister. What shaft you going back with? Not sure CF shaft will help much, you may have to go with steel shaft to be sure you can hold but we all know it is the weakest link that goes.

Great pictures and build!!

3000 stall? Are you running a modified stock converter or did you have one built from billet?

Your worst nightmare...
Thanks Guys for the kind words but honestly, I need this thing to really show some numbers first before I even get all excited, I know she had the low end that time but we will find out how she does soon.

I called DSS and they will make me a Drive shaft out of Chrome molly, it will take a few weeks to get it here, thats the down part. The DS should hold 1000HP +, Lets see her twist this baby.

Exotic- I have a stock converter but modified, sent it to Pro torque right here in my backyard and told the guy I wanted the highest stall he could obtain in this stock one. You can't even tell I have a converter, From a dig if I stall it hard, all hell breaks loose.

Minor setback. You'll still catch the end of the season. Good luck with the repairs.

UMMM yeah.... What they said. As long as its just a drive shaft this time. I guess if you don't sell it as a curio you can just throw it on the pile of empty wallets that she has given a similar look...JK keep up good work and GL!!!

She is up and running, just waiting for spring I guess before I hit the strip. This time she has a full Chrome Molly driveshaft.

In the meantime need something to test her against. If you know anyone down for a friendly run in Mexico, let me know.

Sorry, couldnt justify 1400+ for minimal gains. Just not my style. I'd rather put that to work somewhere else.

I must admit after looking at your setup, I'm sold. but I'm on the fence as to when to start. What do you think about twin GT30R on the 55 motor?

Only a stones throw away. I don't mind being your punching bag for a few rounds.

Congrats on the repairs.
