Stock IRS with 4.10's.To put a 12 bolt or 9-inch would require huge money and cutting the whole car up.

Excellent ETs Stealth <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

we hope to raise the bar in 2 weeks. Customer of ours just received his 422 MTI vette <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Good God does that thing have some power <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />

before MTI, car went 11.5 in the summertime with a Vette Doctor 382 stroker...MTI just finished the job and picked up a bit more than 80 RWHP <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />

we're hoping for 10.60s out of this beast <img border="0" alt="[hail]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_hail.gif" />

we'll see we're talking to the owner of the car about it tonight...

We're just hoping to get this thing to launch...its pretty violent on the streets <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />

MTI fully expects 130+ mph out of this beast <img border="0" alt="[hail]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_hail.gif" />
