I figured it would be the best so I expected more conversations. I think I may want a stage 1 with 3.91's but waiting to hear more

CamaroGirl5 · 04-05-2013, 01:21 PM

Yea, I have the stage 2 with 3.91. I am not sure whats up with the stage 1s yet.

jeremywilson18 · 04-05-2013, 01:29 PM

I don't have enough power to justify that price and beef but If i was blown I would sure get it

Mine makes a TINY bit of noise around 50-60 mph but its not bad...I have been beating the snot outta this thing and its holding up like a tank! I am so happy with it...it feels great!

sorry to highjack how much oil do the hammerhead take? and is royal purple 75/95 weight good for that? also what brand gears are in this units?i just picked one up from jannetty racing...thanks

Driveshaftshop · 05-11-2013, 06:47 AM

There motive gears, do not use Royal purple, They recommend a non-synthetic 85-140 for the Torsion diffs.

congrats on the purchase.......

I figured I would write an update on all this stuff...

So I had the system re-bled and the 2nd gear grind is alot better, its still there every now and then but I feel alot more confident pulling gears now.

As far as the hammerhead kit goes, this thing is a tank...I have been roll racing alot with it and its responsiveness is amazing. I am in love with the whole 1-piece driveshaft and how it feels. There are no vibrations at all and I have hit 150 mph with no problems. The best part is going racing or messing around with the car and not worrying about being stranded somewhere because I snapped an axle or grenaded the rear end (like I have done before with other parts). lol I know stuff can break (especially due to my driving style), but I know its not going to be the rear end this time. I have beat the snot outta of this drivetrain with no problems...last year, I was in the shop almost every two weeks fixing one thing or another.

I feel like this is the best this car has ever ran and felt overall.

So excited for Indy
