Driveshaft snapped...
I had a stock aluminum ls1 driveshaft. Im making 283 whp 351ft lb. So im not sure how that happened. Anyways, whats everyones opinions on driveshafts? Steel, aluminum, carbon fiber? In the near future my goal is making 900-1000whp when i turbo the car. It will be a daily, but ill be taking it to the track every weekend.
Thanks

The PST 3.5" aluminum driveshaft is good for 1000 hp, I have sold hundreds of them and they hold up very well. http://shop.brutespeed.com/PST-DRA35...-PST-DRA35.htm Bob

We have found steel to be more reliable than aluminum. BTW, aluminum shafts actually have a steel tube insert @ the built up torque end (diff.) of the shaft. The steel tube is isolated by rubber sleeves. Regardless, we snapped our aluminum shaft (we don't drag race), road course & street use only. Have no experience w/ carbon fiber.
