What diameter was that one? 3.5" or 4"? Originally Posted by dvw Obviously mine is an automatic. But it's had an aluminum shaft that has been it since day 1. 860 passes ago. Never had an issue with it. It's a Dyno Tech. Doug I've been happy with my last two Dynotech driveshafts as well, but as an FYI- their parent company closed them last month. They are reopening as Performance Driveline Engineering, but it's gonna be a few more weeks before they can make parts. I'm going to take mine to CCI to get it cut down for the Dana.

Did you by any chance video the burnout and launch? Too much clutch? Last edited by GomangoCuda; 05/15/23 10:03 PM. In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.
