I'm in the 11's at the drag strip, and my 97K mile front diff will be fine.

I don't think they're necessarily horrible, but I just don't see them holding up to 1000awhp and getting deep into the 9's. Also worth noting the 7.2 gears in thinking about using are not the GM 10 bolt. It's actually from the SyTy front diff, and was going to get aftermarket upgraded stronger gears... Yukon perhaps? It looks like it also has a favorable hypoid offset as well. |
So is this a definite that you will be making upgrade front diffs ?
