Default ACPT Carbon Fiber Driveshaft

Im getting ready to do my trans swap in my LS1 car from my 4l60e to A3. Because I dont have a 9" tailshaft trans, this driveshaft will not work for my car, so I have no use for it. Im not sure how many miles are on it, but not alot, it still looks BRAND NEW. They will fit any 98-02 Camaro/Firebird with a 4L60E or M6 trans. Also not sure if they work in 93-97 too, but it might. 500.00 shipped.

That looks like the 3.25" shaft, which is rated to 800 ft/lb of torque and 12,500 rpm.

They also made a 3.75" shaft rated to 2000 ft/lb and 14,500 rpm.

I have the 3.25" shaft in my red car, and can attest is was smooth as butter cruising 165+ (170 on GPS) for miles at a time at BBORR.

It isn't all that much lighter than the stock aluminum shaft, but is a bunch stronger and doesn't have the balance problem at speed the stock shaft has (the stock shafts critical speed with 3.42 gears is under 180mph).

Hmm.. fits an M6 huh. I'll give it a free bump so it can sell and I don't convince myself to buy it.

Default u-joints

If it has the larger 1350 u-joints I'll take it for $450.
I have a strange 12 bolt.

Your PM inbox is full lol.

I do have an A3 already, but I need another for my other car. What would you want for it, and where are you located? Thanks.
