Dat 392

Thats funny rebekahsz.Want to go to Alabama one day as theres an engine builder called Bennett racing down your way who apparently builds killer ford engines so ill be looking out for your car.Looks like youve got a pretty serious car yourself.Takayuki The kameari bar looks more like a factory replacement as apposed to a billet solid repacement.Cheers.

Yes wouldnt want it to happen at speed.Thought about going solid axle a little while ago when i broke the halfshafts ,but thought it would change the whole car and therefor may as well sell it and by a muscle car like my mates.Plus to back half a car in australia was going to cost me $15000 to $20000.The only issue is I would like to increase power but i think its near its limit and as you probably know its a fine line between fun and catastrophic failure!

Car has run a best of 11.5 at 118mph with full exhaust and street trim

Thanks for all your replies.All bushes and hardware were replaced and diff is braced at the front.Found out today, that the moustache bar that snapped seemed to have been reinforced with a welded plate across the wide part of the moustache bar and I didn't know as I'had a couple and ended up using this one.Welding on spring steel weakens it and does not allow it to do its job.It snapped just after the reinforcement.Motor makes 510foot pounds and with a GeForce drag radial it cut like butter.I ended up ordering the Arizona z car setup.

Hi I am new to this forum but have found a lot of information on this site to be very helpfull.Basically took my car to the local dragstrip and on my second launch snapped the factory moustache bar.the car is a 1976 260zed 2+2 393 cube windsor,c4 auto 3800 histall,r200lsd 3.9 gears.Basically everytime I take it to the track the weakest link breaks and now im up to the moustache bar.Can anybody advise me on a stronger option.Thanks
