We are having them built by a big axle company and have an exclusive on them. We had to change the current SSR 14 bolt axle forgings for the use of the reluctor wheels inside the axle tubes for the wheel speed sensors on the TrailBlazer SS's.

The axles use the stock carrier and locker (Eaton Locker) or you can change the locker to any of the others (Detroit Locker). The axles at 33 spine stock and the new ones are the same, they are a bolt in. We will be releasing them in another 4-6 weeks.

We are finished with it and have it all tuned for 16 psi and a progressive 150 shot. We tried a progressive 250 shot but it was blowing off the M&H DR's to over 80 MPH. The only thing left are the forged axles and they will be ship to the new owner.

I have a 1932 Chevrolet Roadster that will be next. We are going to build a similar MagnaCharged LSX drivetrain for it.

I have not been able to get any video footage of it lately. Seems like every time we take it out for a video the cops are everywhere.
