I can promise it will take the abuse. It is the same parts I use in our 2000hp Outlaw cars. I believe the wheel hop will be eliminated also.

GTOCTS-V ... you had mentioned that they replaced your rear end with the '06 version. Having the pnos would help me convince my Caddy service manager to do the same with my V. Please post the details with pnos and what was done.

Thanks.

I'm guessing my V's gonna be the guinea pig for this, since Thunder's sending it to Madman after they get the engine in. Gonna be a 9" IRS unit and I couldn't be more exited. I miss my car

We don't have a firm price yet but it's not going to be cheap. It will be a Billet Al. Ford 9" center keeping the IRS, half shafts, and a drive shaft most likely. We'll have some firm numbers once we finish Mike's car.

You're going to do a land-office business on the rears, assuming what you have told us will operate as advertised. I for one, will be ponying up the dough for a new rear. I suspect you will have dozens of orders for them. How about a GB for initial 25 or so? I think youd have many takers for that.
