Steel driveshaft Vs PST 3.5
I have a line on either of them, I realize that the PST is probably the best route. But has anybody really had any problems with the steel driveshafts?which would be my best route?
Thanks
Thanks

We sell PST drive shafts daily and have had very good luck with their product.
As far as which one is best it basically falls down to your budget, set up, and room for fitment. The PST 3" steel and the PST 3.5 aluminum are rated basically the same but you have to deal with the extra size of the 3.5 if you have tight tolerances but you also get a pound or two of weight loss with it as well.

I had a PST 3.5 aluminum driveshaft on my Z28, never had a problem with it. Bob

Once thing people do not look at is the race weight of the car as weight has a signifigant factor any may driveline type parts. Now most racers would say that if your going to run the car hard, the smart thing to do is lighten it up and I tend to agree. My car is a heavier street car and I suspect the 3.5 PST would probably be fine.
When I race though I let it fly off the limiter and I expect to have Nitrous on at some point and ultimately I felt the 3" Steel Nitrous Ready DS from Denny suited my needs better.
So in the end, who is to say.
Either one as long as it is aftermarket. You should be fine.

The original SLP car (Nick) is still using the 3" AL shaft we did, i can't remember how many years ago, that car has been on the back wheels just like Bobs and 1.2' 60's for a long time now.
