How is that 8.8 build coming along? I could use a relatively affordable rear pretty soon. Carrier isn't too happy in the 10-bolt and I am trying to avoid spending a single dime on this rear.
This beast has parts from my beast so its going to go 9sec without question....you can thank me later lmao!!!
Keep the good work up!
LOL, sure does...those upper shock mounts make ALL the difference

i have a kid on the way i have to wait till thats done and over with
until then erik and them can have fun installing my stage 2 clutch when i get it lol
I've been in a ride in the(Mallet Edition) Solstice with the LS in it. I can tell you those are sick lil cars. Im pretty sure the reason they didnt come out with them was cause it could be very competetive against the Vette's
As of today, the car is just about complete with the exception of a few odds and ends in the interior, and of course tuning. She fires up, and sounds like a beast from hell.
REAR END: After much deliberation, we decided to remove the 8.8 conversion and install a 9" from Moser (Bob@Brute Speed really hooked us up- if you need a rear end you call BOB!) It is important to know that we're not ditching the 8.8 at all, in fact, we're having parts made for it as we speak. It's just that we've passed our completion deadline with BackLash and really need to get this thing done. There are a lot of events coming up and the weather is going to be perfect for racing here soon, so I wanted to get her done. The 9" will do the trick. Here are the specs from Moser:
-Custom Moser 9" Fbody housing (we opted to leave the shock mounts and PHB mount off the rear as we need to custom build those items to fit our wheels). Obviously the only mount we needed was the T/A mount.
-Nodular Iron Center with 4150 Yoke
-4.30 gear ratio
-4" Narrow on each end, 8" overall
-40 Spline Upgrade
-Moser Extreme Gun Drilled axles with Star Flanges
-5/8" Studs
Should be a nice addition to the car- and obviously should hold like a beast!
Pics will come as I get parts in!

Good luck on the 8.8. I just cut off most of my ta mount and moved everything and redesigned the whole thing. I haven't beat on it yet other than the street but my old design went 9.8's with a 1.39 60'.

Cool, thanks for the good luck wishes. It's a good design like I said, and will be completed - it was just taking too long for this particular project. We try and turn over work here very quickly, that includes shop projects.
9" comes today!

9" is here...sorry for the lousy shots...I will provide better shots and details when I have some time!
Erik@Lashway
Check out those MONSTER 40 spline axles...flanged and drilled of course. WAY overkill for this particular set up, but we build things once around here....BackLash isn't going to have a stock 346 forever
