Default 4"10 gear with et drag radial

How long do you guys think the 10 bolt would hold up with 4:10's and mickey et drag radials? it's a 2001 m6 camaro 230/224 cam,tune,longtubes, ory, slp lid, slp maf,? I need a gear fro the 1/8th but i still wanna hook with at least 1.8 60 fts.

Not too long if you dump the clutch. I'd start saving for a 9" and the towing fee.

PS You don't need mickey's to cut 1.8's. I had a slew of 1.87 60's in my 4.10 car with regular street tires at 32 psi.

M6 is the hammer. Broke 2 or 3 with an M5 305 IROC - put in a 350 and an auto and it's been fine since. The LS1 car has a 9 inch...

my car was a h/c/full bolt on car. i ran 4.10's on the 10 bolt to 1.83-1.9x 60's quite a few times on BFG Drag Radials. dont get me wrong, i knew i was on borrowed time, but it held up. this was actually a replacement posi/gears from the last owner that broke it.

that being said, i purchased a 9".

...after i saw "sstony" go through four 10 bolts before he bought his Dana 60.

I have an A4 and cut a best of 1.74 60' last season. I got a little wheel hop on the launch and it took out a couple ring gear teeth. Put new gears in and made 3 passes and the carrier took a crap.
