I know there was some interest in these on the board, and we have a thread about it in one of the forums right now. So, if anyone is interested.

I just hung up with ACPT. If we can GP 5+ of these, they will be $200 off of the regular $795 and $40 freight (48 states of the US only). Meaning, $595 each (plus shipping).

The tech info is this:

Aluminum yokes.
800 ft lbs torque rating
3 1/4" OD
12,500 RPM critical speed

For an additional $100 you can have (and I know you guys will love this one).....

3 3/4 OD
2000 ft lbs torque rating
14,500 RPM critical speed


Anyone interested?

I agree, but I don't know how they can rate them for flywheel TQ, since the driveshaft shouldn't care at all about that. What if someone runs a different gear ratio in their transmission?

I suppose they sell these shafts in stock length with stock yokes so that makes it unlikely someone will do that.

On the other hand, 800 flywheel ft lbs is STOUT. I don't care how you slice it, it's going to put a large quantity of torque to the rear axle. Meaning, it should/would be more than enough for anything most of our mere "mortal" cars are making for hp and torque. But, I understand and agree with your point.

And, most F-body transmissions become a fuse at the 800 ft lb torque level. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/rotf.gif)
