All you v8 conversion guys. I hear all sorts of opinions as to what breaks when you convert to v8 power. I would like some opinions:
1. Axles: I hear that these are the weakest link. Replacing them with 911 shafts seems to be the "fix"? 2. 901 transmissions. When they fail, what breaks? The case? Gears/shafts? 3. What level of hp/torque is the limit of a 901 setup. Thanks. Mike |
