so far it survived 60+mph winds and getting crushed by the car port destroying itself. made it out with minor scratches. made it 75 miles to work with no problems, so hope it makes it through the day tomorrow lol.

Nice numbers, wonder how much more you would have gotten if the clutch held up? Sounded like they went full throttle at a pretty low rpm.
Car sounds really good. At least your clutch is the weak link and saves the trans. A 4.45 cryo treated trans would be monster in that car.

For about 5 pulls
They dont hold up well over 400ftlbs.
And shooting for 600whp
And yeah he went wot at around 2500 rpm. Little low but it did what it needed to do.
Plugs were shot and i was getting some nasty spark blowout in the mid 6000 range. Just clearing that up i think the car will still hit about 580 with this clutch. It would slip get hot and grab again. The loop in the dyno graph is hilarious....

The halfshaft itself fits fine. The issue is the axle end of the halfshaft is male, and you need a female ended axle from one of the autos (opposed to the both sides male axles we normally use). The off the shelf axles that people have used are what's too short. If you could find an axle to fix/custom axle, it wouldn't be an issue
I guess theoretically if the halfshaft was longer it would make up the difference as well. Depends on which way you look at it

so then you would have to get a custom intermediate made. either way, its not going do be a bolt in and go without getting something made, rigging it up by spacing the axle at the hub, or getting lucky and finding an off the shelf axle from a different vehicle that works.
