that's a good reason to retire the 10 bolt and upgrade. If not i'm sure that won't be the last broke gear.

Posi is fine, it was getting some good traction with the ET Streets and went pop.

Wow, don't you just love torque. I love to see the power of the LT1====> and pictures prove it. Good luck on getting that beast up and running again.

It's getting there. I had ET Streets on, hit 25mph at about half throttle, put it to the floor, then boom..
It's just a Hotcam..

Yea, that was from a 25mph roll..
AND it killed something in the Tranny...
Something was working good somewhere, and it obviously had no traction problem.

Hey, how is the snow up there in Rodchester.. I am originally from the Lake George area, I am stationed in Arkansas. Clear and Sunny, mid 70's here..

If someone wants them for $75 they can have 'em..
It will make a good paper weight for the office..

That's awesome Merv! ET Street Slicks or Radials?

-- reminds me of when my friend actually put a whole in the cover on his 8.5" on his truck.
