Need driveline recommendations

I will start out by giving the numbers here. whp is 632 as of right now. I am on a stickier set of all weather tires currently. Slicks are coming soon.

Ok so recently after a hard launch i destroyed the rear end. I temporarly fixed that by finding some parts off the wrecked 2010's.

My question concerns what do i need to do for my rear end. I talked with Ted at jannetty and he recommends the 9 inch conversion and curious who has done that.

And what clutches do you guys recommend. Is twin disked really needed? I found these monster single disk clutches and wondering if anyone has messed with these yet and any words on them.

You are approaching the Hp area where the stock diff will not make it anymore. contact some of the guys that have posted installs on this site. they would be the ones to talk to. Ted from Jannetty has installed may of them and has given some good advice.

I agree, your pushing the limits of the stock rear since there isnt a good posi out yet for these cars.
We make a bullit proof 9" conversion for the 2010+ Camaro that uses a fabricated housing and our 1000+hp axles, driveshaft of your choice (aluminum or carbon fiber) for a great price.
We can also build the rear with the 35 spline wavetrac posi that comes with a lifetime warrant.
We will have one of our 9" kits on display at Camaro fest if your at the event.

Thanks
Chris @ Gforce

I have just slightly more than yours. I have 9 inch, axles, and one piece shaft fron driveshaft shop. Also have ram twin disc clutch. Works absolutely perfect. Also suggest chassis brace and at least trailing arms. Good luck.

Sounds like a SOLID recommendation.I would add Subframe bushings and Diff bushings as well. You won't need the diff bushings if you replace the rear diff with a 9" or LPE's rear diff.

I would suggest you shop at Drive Shaft Shop, Gforce 1320, or Lingenfelter, for the parts Flyby recommended.
