Re: Hell yeah!!
Ahh, I'd say your driveline would be fine. My Vega had a normal drive line. It was just shortened, and it run for over 13 years, and would still be running if the axel tube hadn't of broke.
I guess your wheel openings have a pretty decent amount of room. If you ever went with a big slick, you'd probably have to do some trimming though, but you won't ever go with the size that would require that. I bet you get a lot of rubber on your 1/4 panels though don't ya? Looks like the tires stick out a little there at the bottom. I know my Vega was like that. It would cover up the lower part of the 1/4 panels with rubber, lol. The Nova don't becuase the tires are tucked under that.

Re: Hell yeah!!
Little bit of rubber. Wax helps.
I am mostly worried about the driveshaft. Aluminum stocker.

Re: Hell yeah!!
Lol. Well, when I said driveline I was talking about the driveshaft. I'd say you'd be fine. I mean everybody wants an alluminum piece anyways, lol. The one I twisted up was steel, and it was nothing special. Just a stocker piece that was cut to fit and welded back.
It stood a lot of hole shots in its day. It held up against some stout 355s, 406s, a 468 BBC, and then bit the dust with my 383, but like I said, breaking the axel tube is what caused the drive shaft to break.

Re: Hell yeah!!
Be careful Luos. Don't be so driven to run an 11 that you stay in it when you shouldn't.
Anyways, wish you luck on the 11's. I'm guessing you'll run a 12.1 @116mph though.

Bet is doesn't break 16's. I am not going to push the car that hard tomorrow afternoon. I need to drive it home after racing, so.... Video camera will be there, but I will have a rookie getting the footage. So not sure how much good footage I will have.
