i'm certainly interested in knowing the cause. if you're not spraying off the line, the rear should have held up without question. in fact, the trans shouldn't have had any issue either. did it break on the shift?

Could be the output shaft on the trans. That Eaton shouldn't have broke. Those are some strong little guys. I've made several 12 second passes on mine and I know that others have too.
Parish got his Eaton into the 11's and took it through how many .. 3? .. FLP lvl 4 transmissions.

Good point ... but the wheel spin he was getting as well as the bucking action should create plenty of 'shock' load on the differential. Probably a lot more than a hard shift or a nitrous hit.

That sucks man. Doesn't make alot of sense, seems with the eaton and century built trans it should've been fine. Especially since you weren't spraying. Good luck gettin everything worked out.

well didnt get home till late. found a tore apart 4l80 but it was torched. went by a friends house to look at a turbo 350 that was built by trans king but he wants way to much. i am going to get some finances together and go from there.
