I'm changing to try and save weight anywhere in the driveline. This will be about 4-5#'s lighter then the CM. I also took 10# off my crank by a pulley swap and converter change. These little things all add up for HP in the end :)

glad to help with the GP and offer a great product
u-joint info
1350 Spicer Series: Manufactured with OEM tolerances and treated with our Cryogenic Process to yeild the strongest U-Joint available. For drag racing applications a solid non-lube design U-Joint is recommended because of the tremendous initial shock load, or short duration of high torque the joint must be able to withstand.

stronger and it would require a conversion u-joint as mentioned since the 10 bolt has a smaller/weaker yoke

We have 3 confirmed orders so far and 1 of those 3 being myself and 1 I sold for an install.
get your orders in by tomorrow and I will place those orders Monday. I will add to the GP as needed as orders come through until the 12th
This will allow people to get them a bit sooner as they will ship in 1-2 days of PST getting the orders.

calling PST Monday to get the run of orders in which we receive by days end Friday Feb 5th
2nd run after GP ends Feb 12th
I'm just hoping the 10 come in by next Friday which I based this off. I'm doing this since it seems like some would like to get the DS sooner and I'm always all about helping.

I did not since posting sales in other section besides sales is like walking on glass here. I just wanted to stay out of trouble with the site though all us sponsors make this site operate.
edit: I added it so I will see if I did it correctly to not get in trouble or the thread locked.

02-08-2010, 11:20 AM
Larry, I have an M6 with a Moser 12 bolt. My LPE 3.5" driveshaft is stock length, but it's too long for the 12 bolt. It's so tight, I can barely get it out of the rear yoke when removing it. I believe this will require a custom length, but which pricing structure would this fall under?
I'm pretty much in for the GP either way. I was intending to order a PST shaft shortly anyway.
LS1 SPEED
02-08-2010, 11:23 AM
They have bolt-in shafts for 4L60E/T56 to 12 bolt, S60 and 9".
The price will be $399.99
PAGregSS
02-08-2010, 11:38 AM
Ok, just to confirm. The fitment they have for the M6/12 bolt is shorter than stock, correct? That's my biggest concern.
LS1 SPEED
02-08-2010, 11:48 AM
PST is 1/8" shorter for a 12 bolt v's their 10 bolt shaft.
44 1/4 v's 44 3/8
We are not sure what the LPE shaft measures at, but we can assure you the shaft will fit properly.

I was on the fence as to whether I wanted to order a custom length or go with the direct replacement. With our snowstorm here on the east coast, I didn't get a chance to get under the car and measure this week, so I guess I'll call today and order the direct since you assure me it will fit correctly.
