Hi Car 53,

I blew my Diff. last year. It really exspensive. I was using M and H drag radials. It broke during the launch.
I was launching at 6500 or a bit higher. Was getting about a 1.67 60 ft. time though.

I have a KAZZ now with 4.3 gears. I have lowered the car more this year so I cannot fit the M and H's anymore.
I miss launching at the high rpms....It was a RUSH!!!
My best with the M and H's were 12.15 @ 114 mph.
With regular street tire: 12.9 @113 mph. Cannot beleive some of these high HP rx's get into the 12's with street tire?

There's a track event tommorow and will try feathering it out of the hole, instead of spinning for the first gear or more.

But I suggest: If you drag race lotts and Launch at high rpm get the KAZZ and 4.3 gears. Better acceleration and the Kazz can take the torture. But for street driving the Kazz is noisey around slow corners.

best of luck.

where might i find info on kazz?

Rotary Performance... Also do a search on old postings.
Just click on Search and then search for kazz rear end.

Talk too Ari and RP. It takes some time to install it though. Do this now. Or you will pay big bucks later when you break it.

i will look into it.

You can also get the Chromoly half-shafts that RP sells. Hard core.
