When is a good time to go from stock Driveshaft to a 1 piece Aluminum?
Getting pretty heavy on the HP mark at wheels, when is a good time to change this out? or is the ZL1 stock version solid enough?
Any have any experience with the 1 piece ones and is there any noticeable drivability or launch improvement? I have been looking at both the DSS and GeForce offerings. Thoughts? |

So true... I have the DSS CF version... smoother transition to diff since it’s one piece... -Don

I guess what I was looking for is:
Is there any truth to the single shaft, single joint is more responsive and the less rotational mass a perf improvement or just an insurance strength policy?? |
