Nate, did you just take the whole radiator and fan assembly right out of the car you hot it from? I can't remember what car? Or is the radiator and fans separate and you combined them? Did you just spray paint them? Great pictures you gave all of us!! Great ideas! Thank you for your help.

Went to the track Saturday. Launched on a 1.32 60ft, felt amazing, then bang bang bang.
Thought it was the input shaft but turns out the stock limited slip carrier and spider gears decided their time was up.
Guess my quest for 8's is done for the year. Going to be a long winter.

A spool on the street prob won't fit what Nate does with the car.
There are good strong options for a posi type diff.
Tom's Differentials is a good source.
Sadly, the NHRA doesn't recognize the disc brakes as axle retention devices. Which I think is dumb.
Amazing the stock posi lasted that long!

You put that "stock" 12 bolt through hell for sure, I am surprised it went this long with all that abuse.
