real street diffs for drag week

wen't out with some people from wave trac last week(old english pub for real old ale)talking about 9inch diffs they told me they do an lsd/atb with pre load for 28,31,33,and 35 spline and has been test on big hp drag cars . going to try one on blue bell better for corners at speed

do they have 9" short enough for your van Mick?

[Dignlif]

cool thanks Mick. Per Johns thinking, I doubt that the rear end in my car would be narrow enough for your turbo beast.

Like I said, I haven't had any problems running the spool on the street with my balloons since 2005. 18" of tread hydroplanes regardless of spool/ no spool. It just kept nagging me in all that heavy rain after I was questioned about running the spool on the street. As for handling with a spool, I don't take corners fast in that car anyway due to the weenie tires in front.

yes axle 42inchs face 2face,big bearings strange 31 shaft ,broken 2 28 spline shafts road miles take there toll,and 1.53 60 foots as well ,stock ford 9inch posi but change clamp load, On 13 inch wheels +21inch tall tyres(tires) worked like spool on street but alot better after spring change behind clutch pack.

They DO........after he did a few modifications. OK, a bunch of modifications.

You're welcome in my car any time Jeff, if you can stand to go that slow.

LOL

John, have you considered painting the Flying Falcon, Labatt's Blue?

R, Z

Carl - pure GENIUS!

The original thought was a 50/50 mix of the car's original "ming green" and my favorite old ford color "acapulco blue"

Then a guy had to go playing with striping tape on the front laying out flames.....

[Carl Zink]

Damm peer pressure!!!!

The flames add the cool factor!!

I wonder how long Larson gets out of a set of front tires - rumor has it he runs fast on the road - with all that big block over those skinny tires in windy roads? I've got to wonder if he plans on a new set of fronts for every DW.

in 2010 seen him running 85 mph down the eway couldnt keep up he drives the sh-t out of that nova
