Your car just keeps getting better and better Tim! Wow I didn't even know the Link could estimate WHP/TQ. I've still got so much to learn....

- You said you are spinning too much at 6K??? I couldn't imagine that. Keep posting updates, and I can't wait to see you hit the track with that beast!

Really First time out to Test & Tune at Bradenton Dragstrip On NEW Motor.

Was on the way to about 10.30's -10.40's but missed 3rd Gear......

Was very shocked as I got a Wheelie in 2nd Gear @ 52mph....

Got a lot of work getting the Car Dialed in to get into the 9's but I think I'll get...

Tim, I can not wait to be able to make the drive down and watch this thing in person. Lifting the wheels going into 2nd on a full weight car is crazy.

Took my car our to the Drags Thursday Jan 20, 2022 for the second time out with the New Motor.

But, on my First Run Launch I Broke the Driver's Side OutPut Shaft of the Diff.
Pretty mush everything else is done in the rear, DDS Pro Axles, Drag Shocks, Soild Diff Bushing, Diff Brace, Z1 Sub-Frame Bushings.

Install a New Z1 OutPut Shaft, but I think I hear Noise in the Diff while on Jackstands. Will be running up & down the street tomorrow to see if it's ok.

Note: nobody else that I know of has yet to break one of these.
Seams to me it broke in an odd way

I would say what I posted is in the ballpark. The car is for sure going to run very low 10's, but hope I get into the 9's, that's my goal anyway.

Sorry to get your hopes up.

No, just thought they might be a thing by now. I'm sure someone could CNC them on an unlimited budget. Hopefully the Z1 stubs are up to the challenge.

That's Ok....
I've Searched........

Best Options is a 9 Inch Ford with a Modified Sub-Frame, this is the Toughest and less expensive....

Or you could do a Quick-Change, but Big Bucks...

If I go one of this ways, I think I'll build the Sub-Frame My Self.

Finally made it back to Bradenton DragStrip after Rebuilding the Diff with a New WaveTrac & New Stub's.

Still Launching easy (4500rpm), as I don't want to break it Again! But Car Bogs like Crazy with RPM's dipping down to 2000rpm.

Still managed a 10.685@136.72mph, really need to Launch at 6000rpm+

I'm still getting mine dialed in.
