Ok it's a will it hold question, un answerable ? But I know there's similar builds with known results so ...
T56 early srt10 box, no 9310 but its the 1 piece shaft. Rebuilt by Liberty Gear with billet keys on all 3 bronze pads on all, shot peen cryogenic and thermal treatment
Its not finished yet but that's basicly what my budget can afford
The car is a pig , 72 Monte Carlo, I'm doing what I can and think I'll have it down in the 3,500lb range at least
Engine is a iron 408 ls3 combo 11.5-1 240/248 629/629 roller single plane , Holley carb plus a 200 shot , I want to launch it at 6k on the motor... will it hold?
Any experience and advice will be greatly appreciated
Thank you, Adam

My t56 has lived a tough life. Launched at 7000rpm on slicks, roughly 700whp on nitrous and 3850-3900lb race weight. Only thing I ever broke was fork pads and blocker rings, and twisted one slip yoke. Now that same trans is faceplated and I added a fluid pump. I'm in the 1000hp neighborhood now with twin turbos and it's still holding.....for now at least.

It's an fbody lol. It had no weight reduction, added iron block, cage, 2 nitrous bottles etc etc plus I weigh 230. Adds up quick! I've removed some things and got race weight down to 3720 now with the turbos. Still pretty fat. I run a mcleod rxt twin disc clutch.
