Upgraded 7.5

If you can get this to hook on a well prepped track, then you'll have a chance at breaking it. You'll break a gear before you break an axle or the Torsen.

We built the same setup minus the axles - used S10 2WD axles - never broke. Car made just a tickle less than 500whp with a turbo.

edit : I didn't see all the posts for some reason, they were hidden??? If your intention is weekend use at the drag strip, then you made a mistake. If not, then you made the right choice IMHO.

Yes and I plan on spraying a 200 shot the good part is I acquired all these parts from a family member

OK, I call Uncle. I'm a 7.5 fan for certain applications, but you will be exceeding the limits, probably on the 2nd shot. We could get a pool going on how many button hits it will take - I take 2. The issue is that the nitrous hits like a sledgehammer - there is nothing tougher on your driveline than nitrous.

Kidding aside, sell that stuff - the Torsen upgrade with Moser axles and diff cover is a very good upgrade for a tire burner/red light racer (no prepped track launches) - someone will buy it I'm sure.

Welp there goes my hopes of “Spraying N Praying”🤣🤣🤣
 
If Im not mistaken, those 28 spline mosers will fit into a 8.5, right?

Ive already got my 28 spline axles (From a GN), Im just asking for knowledge.

I really like that perfect launch cover tho... and I don't have the posi unit yet.. (Was leaning toward auburn myself) 🙂

I’m not 100% sure but I might be leaning towards selling the whole lot plus I have some ARP stainless 12 pt diff cover bolts as well and a Yukon 28 spline mini spool

Not up for a mini spool, but let me know if you want to get rid of the cover. There are a couple around here for sale, so no biggie... yours is just newer 🙂

Go 9 inch and don't look back. Rather go a little overkill than to build it and not be able to drive It due to parts breakage.
