Please keep tech threads on topic, must I remind you this is not the BH. Thank you.

Matt,
I had another post that I deleted, but I guess I'll throw it out there.
You can mini-spool it.

Disclaimer: This is a
really bad idea, especially for drag racing, especially with your power level, and especially with the ring gear size. Of the two rear end guys I have used (both had/have 30+ years experience with rears) they were both very adamant about mini spools being for dirt track racing only. If you bust an axle shaft you can do a header into the other lane, or the wall.
Doing a "Lincoln Locker" will do the same thing, but the welds need to be good or it's a bomb. Any spatter or slag will make short work of the gear set. And you run into the same danger issues. Be real here. Your car will do 140 through the traps. You are making big boy power.
