i welded up the tubes at the center sections, and have a carrier bearing support cover.. this car is more for the street than an all out drag car so its not gonna see too many wholeshots and im not running a trans brake.. or i would be worried too... ive had pretty good luck with them so far.. i made a big mistake abt 3 mo ago while trying to set up the carb right, i had this stumble/dead spot abt 30ft out of a 3000rpm foot brake launch.. and i was messing with the jetting and squirter combo and testing it after each change, after finally getting it i guess the tires got pretty sticky from letting them spin a little each time(those MT et streets are awesome!) the car dead hooked and went strait up, not expecting it i let out of it, i had just put a new windshied in the car, but still had the stock 6 cyl springs in the front, well when it came down it bottomed hard, broke my windshield and bent a strut.. what a mess.. but hey thats test ant tune right haha
i just bought a set of wilwood brakes from a member on here for a great price and also ordered a set of AFR heads 210cc runner cnc'd and ready to go, got the victor jr that i will port match.. ill probably pick up abt 60-75 hp over the vortecs i got on there now.. so im hoping the rear holds up... we'll see..
