[QUOTE="twistedneck, post: 15073469, member: 130159"] Great plan IF I was not going to drag it.. however my cousin Kelley runs all the grudge events at Milan Dragway in Michigan and I am required to race there at least 2-3 times per year. So far I've only toasted one rear end. So I probably need something at least as strong as factory 31? 33 spline Truetrack! sounds good IF I could get them drilled or hollow, if not, would you agree the 31 spline true track for 8.8 would be light and ideal? obviously the 28 spline mentioned by CPR is the lightest option but I can see that getting punished a bit with slicks and a manual trans! REM is cool I am going to ask JPC to do mine, and also lighten the ring and pinion, but I've been told the 3.15 that i'm putting back in does not offer up much for light weighting. Is there anything we can do to make the housing lighter? such as a carbon fiber carrier or something like that? Merc F1 uses a carbon fiber one, with a slide in cassette with the gears, however Williams F1 still use aluminum. does anyone make an aluminum 8.8? Any other ideas to improve the rear end appreciated. Light and strong = accelerates and brakes better, that's what i'm after. And when my 401k loan comes in, a CPR turbo optimized with a mountain of cooling and no lag, huge AR, etc.. [/QUOTE]
