Impressive carnage . Is that the Magnum T56 or an aftermarket build-up?

No just a stock T56 with 70k on it. So far so good. I've got a couple buddies in the 9s with stock T56s so I'll just plan on upgrading it when it gets grumpy.

Let's do it! I had so much fun at this last grudge even though my car sat on a trailer. I tuned a buddy's car and ended up shaving 7 tenths. Let me know when you go and I'll do my best to be there.

Thanks Brent! Wouldn't be the start of a season without a destroyed part to kick it off right.

Hey all. After saving and saving I finally got the chunk assembled and the housing, brakes, and axles together. It's back on the road now and getting broken in. I safety wired all of the ARP hardware and used a Strange Pro-G case so this won't happen again. I did find it noteworthy though that the Moser axles while ordered the same length as my Currie units, are about 1/4 inch longer. It looks like the difference is in the collar area near the bearing. I had to raise the rear of the car a tiny bit to keep it from rubbing in and out of driveways.

Me too. Got a couple of little things to tidy up and it'll be ready to try again. Gotta change my whole launch style with the T56 so it's a steep learning curve. Thanks for looking.
