whats the most power my 94 firebird LT1 rear end can handle (safely) running Nitto drag radials? i just dont want to fuck it up.. also what about clutches?

 

Is the 94 rear the same 10 bolt with 7.5 ring gear as the 99? If so...they can handle 700+ rwhp and 1.55 sixty foots and 10.3 s at 135 mph

Atleast mine did.

 

* If the rear end is filled with Holy water blessed by the Pope himself.

 

haha seriously... i was thinking it would probalby only handle 450 maybe MAYBE 500

 

My advice: Worry about it when you make that much power.

 

im trying to cover my ass before things start breaking

 

Id say AL is correct just do those lil suspens mods and see what happends if it breaks junkyards are fairly cheap and easy to find them.

What mods were done to the rear end to get 10's

 

When your cutting 1.7 60 foots or below is when u should start worrying... if you have 4.10's worry sooner because the gears are weaker.
You shouldnt even be worrying about it right now like everyone else stated.

 

i think i have 3.55 gears in.. (they are the stock ones) ill go jack the back up and see tomorrow or something.. im putting down over 300 torque so i dont think i have to worry now, but with drag radials, new clutch and flywheel, suspension mods and a little more power i will

 

Yes he should, Trying to know what your car is capable of is a major thing to know.Id like to know If i decided to put nitrous on my car and boom my rear end blows and I didnt know how weak it was.

As for his car I think he is doing all suspens mods clutch and exahust maybe some pulleys before alot of motor work.I think that is the smart way?
