That's right guys we are finishing up our new aluminum driveshaft and will begin the testing phase shortly. We will be able to offer you a lightweight aluminum driveshaft that will hold over 1000 hp but yet be as smooth as silk. I will keep you guys updated and post pictures as we go.

Cool, will it save weight, is it a 1 piece design

jrpxxii · 01-03-2010, 07:32 PM

Hope it is cheaper than axles

JM10 · 01-03-2010, 07:53 PM

What are the benefits other than weight saving?

It will be a two piece design,a one piece will not give a smooth vibration free ride like a quality two piece.A one piece ds will have a low critical speed where as a two piece will have an unlimited speed rating.Our 2 piece has been over 200 mph in a gto and remained smooth as silk.It will hold a 1000hp with its huge 1350 u joints .Please understand that a light driveshaft on a 3800lb street car will NOT help you ,dont fall for that common sales pitch.
