You should probably be careful if you do this, there is a large risk of breaking drivetrain parts. Having an automatic trans helps.
???? How so? I've seen people run low 11s and 10s with the stock trans and axles on pure slicks. Hmmm I might have to do some digging on this then and sorry if I I was just shocked a lil 1st time I read about breaking the drivetrain ok now

Then get Bogarts or Welds! If u have that kind of cash! And some M/T's!

When I went to the blower the 555r was no longer good enough. Needed the MT's

I went low 10's on the stock trans. I'm sure the other drivetrain parts would have been fine if I left them but I got them so cheap I had to go for it.
A set of slicks goes a long way on any car but even further on an auto.

10.99 is a piece of cake with all stock parts. All you'll need is about 540 rwhp and some 18" drag radials. Trust me, I know for sure.
