Setup i had was in a heavy car but lighter then most trucks but not all trucks....

Late yr 04s had strong rods...early 04s didnt...all 05s had strong rods

 

It wasn't heavy, just a small mustang

 

It was heavy vs others going that fast

 

So I could probably turn up the wick for a little more hp and be relatively safe if the tune is good. The shop that did my truck said they'll push a LS2 in a car 800 to 850 wheel but considering I have a truck with a 4l80, big 2pc drive shaft, 14 bolt rear end, and truck 20" wheels he said my 708rwhp might be close to the crack HP of car pushing around 800 to the wheels.

 

Do you daily drive it or is it a weekend toy?

 

I got a second vehicle but I was actually planning on quieting the exhaust down and driving it more often. I have a eboost 2 controller on it with 3 boost settings now so I would probably just add another or replace a current setting for higher boost setting. That way I'm not beating the crap out of it all the time.

 

This went, stock motor still going strong. Bastard may have cost me my 9

 

I got a 2 piece steel driveshaft from this place. Driveshaft Specialist Inc It better be good for how much it cost me. Although it looks like yours was more of a yoke problem unless the yoke broke after the driveshaft or u-joint went.

 

It is all dependent on the tune. A GEN IV sbe can live at 800whp for a long time. And you might want to look into a single piece driveshaft......DAMN.

 

A single driveshaft would too long on a ext. cab 2wd truck.
