Mine will burn the poor old Goodyear's up. I need to take some pics of 2 (posi) really good marks I left one night. Powerbraking is nothing now, If only my shifts were firmer, I want to be able to bark 2nd at least, 3rd would be nice too. I guess I need to get my shift kit next.

thats weird, my little 4.8 with only intake and exhaust will spin for a good bit, and this is without powerbreaking.

Powerbraking is kinda cool and all but, why would you want to tear up your brakes just to smoke the tires a little?

PS -- Mine will smoke the rear tires from a light too without batting an eye.

Do you guys have open or locking rear ends?

jethro_3 · #23 08-29-2005, 08:34 PM

G80????..... w/out a tune...

sportin83 · #24 08-29-2005, 09:08 PM

mine would only spin a little when i had the stock tires on, but now it wont hardly even bark from a stop. i cant power brake it either, wont do anything. i think i need to get a nelson tune, i wanna be able to burn the tires!!!!

jeverett · #25 08-30-2005, 07:54 AM

Mines posi..or whatevers factory in a Z71. I guess the G80 LSD.... BTW Jethro. That is one sharp "toy"

open, maybe thats why its so easy, but i still feel it would still do it when i eventualy get my eaton LSD. Maybe a little harder, but should still do the trick (powerbreaking).

I dident know the Z71 came with that form the factory, do you think it would be worth it to get one from a salvage yard or just buy a brand new Eaton?

jeverett · #28 08-30-2005, 09:37 AM

I dunno how much an Eaton costs, nor how much a used rear wiht a G80 would cost. I do know that mine locks when its needed. Its worked fine for me so far. Sometimes it locks and has a hard time unlocking, but I guess that can be expected with any LSD

kinda funny...you guys are complaining that you can spin the tires off the line. I complain that my tires spin too much
