perk03z06 Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 I thought my question for CHASE might be good for public view ... CHASE, what I was wondering is what driveline mods have you made to your SS to handle the additional HP/Torque that your old LQ9 was making? TxFer Case Mods, Axle Mods, etc. Then, for this new engine you're building, do you have any plans for additional driveline mods? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
04CHASE Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 nothing really , only mods i have done was a strong 4l65e , and i recently added a ta performance rear girdle with bearign cap studs. I know our transfer case is pretty dam strong so i doubt that would fail. the rear end 10 bolt arent strong but only getting 62% of my power going to it it only need to handle about 500 hp . im sure it wont last forever but it looked good when i recently put the girdle on. the front diff being open could be a weak point but it was recently rebuilt and they are know for problmes on the SS. i think the drive shaft should be ok . the half shafts will break under extreme torque condtions but parish's lasted through a 1000+ hp/tq so i think ill be ok. the weakest thing in our driveline is without a doubt the transmission. id like to do the 80 swap but its just alot of money. right now im focusing on the fuel system . ive pretty much got the engine figured out. it shoul dbe done in a few weeks.
