I bought a Moser housing and axle kit from Musclecar Technologies (they're gone now) for 850 shipped. Then I built it up myself with stuff I already had.
I break the piece of the center section where the back of the pinion rides in the small bearing. The 9" weak link. I'll post a picture of the piece tomorrow if I still have one of the broken ones. I've never broken a posi. yet. It's getting a Strange center section with 4.30's and a spool next time.

I was there Sunday but unfortunately didn't get to meet any of you guys. I was in the NBM Camaro SS with the stock SS 10 spoke wheels. I was hoping to run in the the 12.50's but my best pass was a 12.64 @ 110 with a 1.93 60ft. I didn't get to make any nitrous passes either because everybody that sells it around my area was out. I still had a great time though and got to see some nice rides run. I just bought some draglites and skinnies and hopefully cam and converter will be installed by March 17th. Can't wait.

Yeah, it would have been a good one. I thought the white SS convertible was yours, I just wasn't for sure. Nice car.

Things are starting to look good at the moment. Got a guy wanting to buy my wheels off my truck for $400. Should know tomorrow on that and if he does I'll be able to buy my clutch. Then by March I'll have my draglites which means lower ET's for me

There were some good looking and fast LS cars at the track sunday. Really wish I had not forgot my camera, but everytime I go to the track pictures seem to be the last thing I think of.

My camera goes everywhere with me - especially when there's cars involved. FYI, my camera is really, really high res, so I can blow the pics up huge. Raw, they're about three feet wide. I offered to do Josh a poster of his burnout for Valentine's, but he said he wasn't THAT obsessed with his car.
Those that Josh posted had not been re-touched at all. I usually adjust the colors, sharpen the image and crop them better. I just printed those quickly directly from the camera.
I saw some guy standing on a ladder with a videocamera getting the launches. I'll try to do the same on the 17th, but ya'll better not run over me.
lilman, I'll burn you a copy of the CD with everything from Sunday.
