They are Lorenzo WL 028 18x9.5" w/Micky Thompson ET Drag Radial 305/45R18. I got them from Mike @ BestWheelDeals (he is on Camaro5). That's also where i got my XO Miami 20x10" daily drivers.

ZL1 rear end
Well, i broke an axel (see top right) at the track yesterday (video coming). Every day is a fun day at the track, but my times were very dissapointing. I'll blame a lot of it on the driver . But my 60' times were terrible 1.9 & 2.0 and my 1/4 mile ETs were all around 11.7 . I'm going to blame it on belt slip that i think i discovered at the dyno and definitely my driving...trying to make the transition from dump the clutch to slip the clutch.
Anyway, i have the old drive train out (took about 3 hours, but i didn't have the right size socket to remove the trans flange)...hope to have the new in by next weekend...

ZL1 rear Install
Started my install tonight. Removing the trans flange was a PITA. I replaced 2 bushings on the ZL1 diff. I didn't see how the 3rd pushing would come out (not near as much clearance as on the SS). So i left it as is .
Diff is installed as well as passenger axel. I hope to finish up tomorrow between sons baseball, daughters play, and family dinner .

ZL1 rear/drive train install complete
I finished up my ZL1 drive train upgrade. At them moment everything feels pretty good. I am going to need a longer rubber hanger for the passenger side exhaust...if i use the current hanger, i have no clearance between the exhaust and the new diff. A few zip ties will hold it for a little while.
Now just waiting for my shorter belts to see if i can get the whipple to pull strong upto 7000 rpm...should be here this week, then i finally get to try out my 3" pulley! Can't wait to get back to the dyno and track! I've got to get in the 10s...but i have a far ways to go!

That's a killer build! I bet with the 3.73 gears in the ZL1 diff will help your 60' time in the 1/4 mile, if u didn't already change them, didn't see it in the build. Only wish I could do mine that qwik!

Thanks. I'm looking forward to getting back to the track and improving my 60'. I was still running 3.45 prior to Sunday. My best 60' was a 1.8. In addition to the 3.73, i'm hoping to be +100 more hp . I just received my new 10-rib belts from whipple, so now i can run my 3" pulley! I'm hoping to see better than 800 rwhp...we'll know in a few weeks!
