What is the difference in the universal joints ? Are they solid or what? Just made from better material? The car weighs just over 3000 lbs and the 60 ft times are low 1.30's with a best of 1.32.
540/ glide with brake.
So I guess the actual question I am asking is..If I go to have a drive shaft made for this car..what do I ask for?
Thanks in advance for helping out a green horn.
We use chrome moly driveshafts with 1350 ujoints. Not sure who you would have where you live but we use Jerry Bickel Racecars to make ours.
His shop is about 4 miles from where we live. If you need his number let me know. It might be overkill for your application but I do know stock will not work for very long.
