First off, I haven't seen anything on spring rates? What are you running, more so in the rear?
And when people ask you how much power you make, simply reply with, "All of it."

Thrust bearing?

That can go if you are too long on the brake, have too much line pressure to the converter. etc....

Going to try and have it back together for my HUGE event I am hosting in Kansas City Mo called KC2K13. You all should come out.
when is the event?

I just spent almost an hour reading this whole thread. What a build and from your garage mainly from what it looks.....makes it that more cool as can be. I'm amazed with the knowledge and expertise that it took to go into this build. Just curious, but how did you get into doing builds like this yourself?

I also have the GFORCE 9" and couldnt be happier!! You will tear everything up several times before you have any problems out of that rear-end.
