Torque is why all the drift weenies are running LS engines these days. You'll also like the fact it won't blow up if it's been built right.

If you replace the bearings on the rear axle, figure in the cost of an axle, they use the axle as the inner bearing race so they get gnarled up. They're not that expensive however.

and BTW by drift "weenie" I was referring to the rich kid that showed up with a brand new Nissan 350Z , bought with mommy's money and put it into the wall during the drift competition. A group of us were talking about drift racing at Indy this weekend and actually most of us would like to do it, but the problem we have is that there is a "judging" portion, that's kind of BS.
