9" swap? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

PwrAdikt · 04-24-2011, 09:53 PM

With a six speed, how much can the stock rearend hold? I blew something in mine already but I had 4.10"s. Is 750rwhp a joke to assume it will hold? I see all these builds on stock rear ends but I know they probably dont ride around alot beating on them all the time like I do! If I just lower the gears to maybe 3.55 will it hold? I dont know what broke yet but im guessin sheared the gear.

It all depends on how you drive the car.
You can make 1000rwhp hold if you dont abuse it.

PwrAdikt · 04-24-2011, 09:59 PM

Well.... I drive it hard!

kevin1106 · 04-24-2011, 10:00 PM

I broke mine on dragradials but figured the 4.10's might have played a part... maybe

kevin1106 · 04-24-2011, 10:05 PM

well i have DR too... so far no problems...but i have heard some noise from my rear...i talked to ted at jennetty... he said just to do the swap and sell my rear and axles on a G8 forum page...i could get about 1800 for it.. use that towards the build... i only have 628rwhp and he highly recommend it

kevin1106 · 04-24-2011, 10:06 PM

if you can afford it... id do it, im seriously thinking of doing it, but 6500 is alot. especially after ive invested about 27000 in my car already

Me n you are in the same boat then. Check out gforce1320.com whole deal, including the pumpkin 5500. REAL good stuff I've been told. I was just hoping some1 could convince me not necessary to drop that much more $

kevin1106 · 04-24-2011, 10:58 PM

Ha, with as much power as you and I have... Sorry, gonna convince you to cough up the dough... I'm really on the fence about it..

I'll check out the site you listed. Ted's quote was also including assembly of the rear pumpkin. All I would have to do is install everything. Which is a piece of cake.

What was Ted's price complete?

NickJRE · 04-25-2011, 12:16 PM

Sorry guys we don't make them we buy them, if we could sell them lower we would. The kit we use is a high quality piece from the Driveshaft Shop. However we can support you and help you if a problem arises.

I don't think we are comparing Apples to Apples Guys, LOOK at the Details VERY Carefully and check on Availability, DSS is Available Today.

Our prices are clearly marked on your site, not suppose to post prices in this section.

Ted.

I understand completely. My car is not a daily driver so I can wait. I think the dss is a really nice looking piece. And more professional. I like the fact the gforce1320 piece is handcrafted and looks that way. I do fabrication myself and respect the work he has in it. The convenience of having them ready to ship is worth extra $ in most cases. I didnt realize we couldnt post prices, sorry but dont make sense cause it is a factor in choosing the right mods. I have seen prices even i stickies.
