She was actually videotaping that run, at first she was just more worried about my reation than anything, now that I ordered the 12 bolt she's not that happy .

It happened launching at 4k on MT's(dr's).

 

I think you should get the 12-bolt.

 

*snicker*

Sorry.

 

Well holy **** batman, I think I've found the problem!

If you had told us you would be doing this, NOBODY would have suggested H/C.

You shouldn't do that with a STOCK motor! If you dig your way out of this, more power to ya, but I'm sorry you're probably having to deal with some **** from your other half. All in the name of I guess......

 

good heads and cam will slowly come down somewhat in price as a 12 bolt will not. Not to mention how the ls1 power scene is always evolving and getting bigger

 

rotflmao. i've been there before, too. in fact, i bet most people that voted 12 bolt either have been there before or know someone who has. wha clutch do you have and what kind of driveshaft you use.

PS time for a driveshaft safety loop. i think that will be the weak link here on out for you.

 

howbout 8.5 10 bolt, for street tires only, 4.1

 

Why go through the trouble unless you have one sitting around? you still have to weld on all the suspension mounts perfectly when you can by a 12 bolt already built and it'd still be stronger.

 

Ditto. The Wifey cant argue with a broken rearend. (assuming this is a DD)

 

Thanks to the 10 bolt I've bought a Moser 12 bolt, UMI lca's, UMI relocation brackets Umi t/a, UMI panhard, Spohn sway bar, brembo rotors and hawk pads.

 

Whats the wife think of that?

 

She asked what will break next and I said all these stock suspension parts and she said "I just don't want you to break the car again". So I took this as buy whaever you need for the car.

Hey RedSS......can I ask you a ? about Fayetteville. What military base is up there? My Fiance and I are thinking about NC and he's got 8 yrs in NCO for the Army.

Just wondering if there is any employment for him at that base.

 

I went H/C before the 9''. I think if I had done it over again i'd do the rear first. I had so much power the 10bolt was useless and I couldn't get the full potential out of all the power

 

Fort Bragg. You are saying he's got 8 years in the Army, right?
Well as far as if they got a job here for him is all depends on his MOS. What's his MOS(job)?

 

Uhm.......I don't know what his MOS is. Yes, 8 yrs in I do know NCO SGT when he left.

 

i must say from experience dont go with strange..they have had so many problems with noises from the rears and the axles themseleves and stange is not prone to want to fix them themselves voluntarily or very easily for what you pay for them..be ver wary..im not bashing their company just be careful and look at all your other options..i know alot of peole who have had a lot of problems with strange...i would go with a reputable head and cam and meanwhile beefing up your ten bolt...as long as your overpowering the ten bolt your not gonna break it...its the traction that will break it

 

I went w/ Moser, but anyway not only I broke the 10 bolt like a month ago, last week I broke the driveshaft which I just got done replacing and it looks like it took the clutch too. The car won't go in gear like the disk is stuck to the flywheel.

 

I am in the same situation as you. Get amazing heads to go with my new forged 347, or get a 12 bolt. I decided to go with the heads, even though I know I am gonna probably regret it later down the road.

I'm just a sucker for more power
