With 5000 rpm + dumps you run into severe axle wrap issues if you don't have any traction divices which will break springs, housings, spider gears, axles, ujoints and driveshafts. Oh, and transmissions, pressure plates, rip the center out of clutch discs etc. I have been drag racing manuals for years and have broken all those items at least once and then some. A manual with 300 rwhp will break more drivtrain parts than an automatic with 600 rwhp.
I will be putting a t56 in my 92 what do you recommend in order to make some good times at the track? I will be getting caltracs as they have done wonders on my 02.
