They were going to but I already had a bung for my wideband gauge that I use with EFI Live. I logged my A/F ratio during the run and it was at 12.0-12.1 @ WOT so I think that is pretty good. Also my timing was at 22 deg @ WOT so I need to do some research if that is to high or to low? I need to talk to Blownchevy or Moregrip about optimal timing with the Radix. When I ran the 12.9 sec 1/4 mile I only had 13 deg @ WOT. I will be giving you a call this winter about the 90mm TB upgrade that you have, Also do you a program worked out for the 6.0L w/Radix? I will be buying an engine soon so I can start building it up so when my 5.3 gets takes a crap I can drop in the newly built 6.0 along with the Radix. Let me know. Thanks, Brad

Here are some pictures of the damage from the driveshaft breaking. I sent the pictures of the smashed muffler to Corsa in hopes that they will give me a good deal on a new muffler instead of the whole system. As far as the driveshaft is concerned, I am getting one built by Dynotech Engineering in MI. I also have driveshaft loops on order aswell.

I can't tell from the pic ( i am pitiful), you a 2 piece? Is that a carrier piece or the actual carnage. Man, sorry to hear you broke the shaft. What gear were you in? rpm?

only 13* for the 12.9? Wowser! You got some room to grow. I'd say. Plenty of research on here for the shaft. I have steel one (3") that I had custom made for my 4l80 swap. It's probably 69" or so. PM me if you want it.

NICE Dyno sheet! Congrats on the numbers.

I was in 3rd gear with the convertor unlocked, I was at 5850rpm when the driveshaft broke. Well I did have a 1 piece driveshaft but not anymore of course. I just called up Dynotech Engineering and told them what I had done and gave them all of the correct measurement and they said they will build me a driveshaft that will not break! Yea I didnt check the timing until last night and that is when I noticed what my timing was on the 12.9 run compared to yesterdays dyno run. As soon as I get my truck back together I will head back to the track and see what my truck can do. I am also working on those videos for you, I have one of my truck on the Dyno when it broke the driveshaft. I'll post it on here as soon as I get back tonight. Later.

I ordered my new driveshaft from Dynotech Eng. and they recommended a 4" Steel DOM driveshaft for my truck. They said that the driveshaft is good up to 8000rpm which I think is plenty good. I also called Corsa Performance and they are selling me just a muffler, They had to call Tbyrne to confirm that I bought it and they want me to send back the smashed muffler so they can scrap it. All in All I am very happy with everything so I should have my truck back on the road by Friday.

I dont know, The guy told me that the steel DOM is what he would buy if he was in my shoes so I will take his word since that is all he does is work with driveshafts. BTW the video is looking good! Later.
