Yes I do, and thank you

Now that I know my shiny new axles can handle it, I just hafta find out what my clutch can handle til I upgrade

IROC R/T You are right, DR's or slicks are the way to go on this car for sure.

But as was stated stock axles won't hang with them. **** mine couldn't even hang with a stock clutch and street tires. Driveshaft Shop replacements FTW

 

I guess that's what it's all about with these cars. Axles and clutches FTW!

 

I guess I did not know how weak these axles were until I read the info at the driveshaft shop. They say they are barely good enough to handle stock power. They offer a unit that handles 400WHP for $800. http://www.driveshaftshop.com/item168957.ctlg

 

YESSIR

and, How To Install Them

and, ENUFPWR's pics of how weak our stockers are

thread jack over

On the bright side that trap speed should keep you smiling.

 

Yeah- axles are an easy install and might be wise for you guy's without the DriveshaftShop units to carry a spare and the tools to fix it to the strip. I bet GM starts putting in stronger units stock.

 

Drag slick and axles are great, but if you don't have a good clutch, you're still not going to go anywhere fast. Then you have to worry about the tranny!

 

^^^Yeah, but there are j-body guys running the F23 transmission who are well into the 11's

And our F35 is allegedly a stronger trans, so with clutch and axles, we should be ok for a while. I hope, lol

 

Damn thats a smack in the face right there. what you dicked around till the last second and got on the gas or sumthing. I think the timming tower screwed you bro. can you post you slip if you don't mind cause i have a 14.0 with a 96 trap 2.3 60 ft and i just wanna compare the slips even though there at 2 totally differnt trap on two differnt days. I wanna see at what point you picked up at.

 

damn that sucks im runnin 13.7@105 with 2.1 60ft an a slippin clutch



note to self..........stock tires suck bfg kdw2 i tha way to go for tha street

 

I don't know......105 trap 2.1 60ft and only a 13.7. Tracka F-ing you in the A. Are there any other tracks around you you can try? I know by me English town for best E.t's Atco I've had best Traps. And Island dragway is all around crap. You gotta track jump to see where your car works best if you have other tracks nearby as an option.

 

i think im gonna go to mir sometime soon ...on a side note my clutch is also fucked so that doesnt help ne im goin to the track fri to c if i cant get any better

 

You mind posting up you 1/8 mile times and traps and also what tune you got. maybe your cars breaking up in top of third gear near readline. have you done any dyno runs to see the graph or data log runs? I only say that though because getting a 2.0 - 2.1 60ft is like an ace up your sleve when trying to get good track times on fwd cars like ours. its kinda like if you had a 2.3 60 your ET would make more sense, shity start car pulled it out int he end with the nice trap. but good 60ft's with sub avg E'ts might be something else to lookinto...... Granted things like elevation, weather, track temps and a million other factors have to be taken into concideration. if your car is running fine which it looks like try icing your supercharger down between runs and at this time of year do aternoon-night runs when the air and track temps drop. got me back .2 tenths back when i was stock.

see what im saying though. with a 2.160ft like that i should be more than 2 tenths behind you by the 8th and only 3ths by the quarter. you track or elevation or tune is getting you. Than again this is all point less since it was differnt tracks differnt days differnt everything. this is more for the starter of this thread mostly though. i gotta go home and find my slip im at work right now so i can't get the 330ft and 1000ft times which is really more what i wanted to compare since i lost my tranny before the end of the track

 

There was no traction that night for FWD street tired cars that night. Trust me, I was there. To the thread starter, you will get into the 13s sooner or later.

 

and there you have it. i wouldn't be surprised if his 2nd gear wasn't a little sloppy if there was no traction and based on his mods
