best driveshaft for the $$ Who makes the best driveshaft for the money, I am thinking about going with a strange chome molly, as i have an account with a wholesaler and can probably get one for around $200 or less, but i dont want to cut short on a critical part like that, especially with 6k clutch dumps on spray and 620rwhp. I have heard good things about the pst shaft, but it is probably twice the money as the strange. let me know your experiences, good and bad. Thanks for the input

Speed Inc has a chromeoly one for 379 and custom length for 389. They said they use them on 1000+ HP cars and never have had a problem. I have a custom length one from them that is 1/2 inch shorter than stock to work with your 12 bolt. I went with a 9 inch now so I can't use it anymore. I'm trying to sell it for 250-275 shipped if you want it but maybe not if you can get a similiar one new for 200 or less.

PST 3.5" aluminum driveshaft is what I have in my Camaro shown above. Here is a link to the PST driveshaft from my website. http://www.exoticperformanceplus.com....html?item=541 Bob

Well, IIRC Strange makes 3 different levels in their chromoly driveshaft line, "Very Good", "Much Better", and "Holy Cr@p Batman!". Also, any of them, as well as the PST, should be able to handle your stated hp level with ease.
Is the PST worth twice the price (410 vs. 200)? Not to me, but perhaps it is to you.
I've been running the second level Strange for years with no issues; tons of burnouts, 150 mph runs, etc. But no death-defying wheelstands.
If you notice, the EPP vehicle seems to be at a temporary loss for traction.
