If so how do you like it? It looks like a decent piece.

Is it all bolt in? Any drilling or cutting/welding required?

Are you six speed or auto and what is your best sixty with the setup?

I brought this for my third gen before there were LS1's. There is some drilling. You can adjust the pinion angle now. My old one is non adjustable but my third gen would pull 1.6 60ft.'s on engine and 1.4 on spray

Get the alston one. Its pretty much the same thing as the jegs but it has an extra brace in the middle.

Here is some pics of my bent jegs torque arm from 1.3 60's compared to my alston torque arm that took 1.2 60's and a 300' wheelie.

You got a contact number or price where I can buy that? I always go to chassisworksca.com or something similar and can never find it.

I've used the Jegs for a good lil while now. It's bolt on, but I had the saddle welded to the body for strength.

I personally like it. I hope not to bend it like Magnus, but if I do, I'm gonna go to the Alston, not another tranny-mount torque arm.

Best sixty-foot is in sig.

What wheel and tire combo you running?

That 60' was on some heavy *** AFS 17x11's with some Nitto DR's. The fronts were stock "snowflake" 16's. I plan on running a 15x8 Pro-Star, with a 26' tall ET Street Radial and skinnies up front.

I'm sure I'd see some difference with a lighter wheel and skinnies in the front, and some practice. I've only had 8 passes so far with the converter and some sticky tires.

Everybody around here seems to think that with the Pro-Star combo, I'd easily see low 1.5's all day long.

Keith,
Did that TA have anything in the center to keep it from caving in? The new one looks like a much better piece! The Jegs doesnt look that great.

My alston has taken a few years of 1.35-1.50 action.

I can't remember exactly, but I think it was around $320, someone ocrrect me if I'm wrong. There are some installed pics floating around the site. The installed pics are going to look pretty much identical to the jegster installed pics, since the 2 are so similar.

The only complaint I have about the alston arm is that the sucker is pretty heavy. But hey, if weight=strength then I can live with that.
