    how much power can a 8.8 handle?

    say your using good axels 33 or 35 spline, spool, and good gears. 500? 750? 250? -134?

                  Mine has been "upgraded" by Richard at Mean Street Performance. 33 spline axles, spool, diff cover with support that goes out to axle tubes, welded tubes, straightened, 9" ends welded on with the big bearings, 5/8 axle studs (over-kill but they look cool), leaving on a trans-brake with a 250 shot out of the hole is the goal and I'm not concerned about the rear-end in any way.
                  8.54 @ 159 mph on a 275 drag radial
                  5.43 @ 127 mph to the 1/8
                  8.91 @ 153 in True Street legal trim
                  Best 60' at Top End Dragways 1.22 on 275's

                      It is a damn poor mind indeed which can't think of at least two ways to spell any word.

                        intake got screwed up so he's porting another one. Hopefully have the heads, intake, cam, timing chain early next week. As soon as the intake gets here I'm going to send it off to get plumbed for the fogger. I probably won't even have the engine dyno'd by then. :insert curse words here: I guess there's always next year!
