I think the thing is, I don't know anyone that would try to use a stock driveshaft with any kind of power at all. Anything on slicks pulling 1.7ish 60' times should have good driveshaft with 1350 U-joints and better yokes.

I use 2 companies. Down to the 11's and 12's a good mild steel or Chrome Moly shaft with 1350 yokes and u-joints from Dynotec

Once a car (or ESPECIALLY a HEAVY truck) dips into the mid 10's or below, or 1.4 sixty's there is only ONE source for driveshaft IMO ,,, Mark Williams.

(Welding the axle tubes for anything that hooks should be SOP for anything that quick IMO)

When you're dead, it's only a problem for the people around you, because you don't know you're dead. .....It's kinda the same when your STUPID. I just did my taxes and reviewed my SS statement. Thanks to the current administration it looks like I will only have to work till noon on the day of my funeral.
