Ok, you should also spray off the line. Your ten bolt will last forever.

Im waiting to blow my 4l60. My bet is this season. I imagine who ever had my car before blew the 10bolt becauase the put a moser 12 bolt in it.

Considering the number of stock cars on street tires I have seen blast 10 bolts over the years, I would say you pretty much have it covered.

yet i, the queen of destruction, can't seem to kill one with a 6 speed. wtf mate.

its possible, but might actually last a while behind an auto.

You should throw some 4.56s in there and get a 3600 stall. The ten bolt will last forever so its safe.

Hell, let Ron BREATHE on the 10 bolt. That should do it.

We could just skip to the end, and hit it with hammers.

it'll last a little longer behind a 4L60E than it would behind a T56, but its still gonna break.

Auto with a 2800 stall...im thinking itll break eventually but I wouldnt worry about breaking it any time soon unless YOUR TRYING TO! Esp with just bolt ons better chance with the heads and cam tho but still. I say right now no.

My 10 bolt is pretty strong. Has 180K on it and have done about 35 1.9X 60' launches this year. I will test it next time at the track with the new master cylinder so I can actually launch the car into the 1.7X range. But I have an extra 10 bolt...granted it's 2.73's, that'll probably be pretty hard to bust.

Foxriderry's Formula had 170 or 180k miles and still had the original 10bolt, and was beat on, and raced.

I had a 1.8 60' with my stock non posi 10 bolt 3.08 I beat the CHIT out of that car with that 350, it had 100k + on the rear too.

LOL! From the pool it looks like You are an itiod

The only real way to fine out is to take it to the track. If it breaks, then it was a bad idea.

ProjectZ ran a couple years with slicks going 11s, I broke an axle and split an Alburn Pro within 6 passes on the blower motor without launching hard!

It will last a long time behind an auto if it were an m6 id say no. Scandalous racing had a stock 10 bolt in the green lt1 car that ran low 10's
