I've been trying to read up and figure out just how strong our halfshafts are. my 99 had the worst ever. I broke them just spinning in 2nd. However, in the 03s, I've heard of people running ET streets and drag radials and not breaking them, while still running mid 11 sec ETs, and then I hear of people breaking them on stock tires. Im at the point that Id really like to run drag radials since I have no traction and would like to get a mid 11 et, but I don't want to snap the halfshafts since it is also my daily driver and dont want to or can deal with the downtime.
As far as the clutch goes, what kind of power does it hold up to? Im only running a 2.80 upper pulley and chip, but after a few hard runs, the clutch feels a little soft and smells a little and needs time to cool down to feel normal again. Is this close to its max capacity, or is that just how they are? I was looking into the SPEC Clutches as I had it on my old Cobra and liked it. Any suggestions on this as well?
