Breakage depends on how you drive. If you consider the LSJ's have the same transmission, just a different final drive, and look at the amount of power guys like Paul and Bryan pushed through theirs without failure, it's a pretty stout transmission.

I've got well over 300hp going through mine and have for over a year now, with a full season of drag racing and it's as strong as ever.

From what I've seen posted on here it seems like the downfall of most LNF F35s is the combination of an aggressive tune + NLS.

MU3 and F35 are one and the same. I think MU3 is the RPO code, and F35 is the actual model of the transmission.
