Hill's probably. Frank has had a bunch of experience with these diffs and setting the backlash can apparently be tricky.

awesome, I can't wait to see it running 9s.

dmhenderson · 12-15-2013, 05:27 PM

That would be unlikely.

eastwest2300 · 12-15-2013, 05:59 PM

If you're not running 10s, I'd be shocked.

Unlikely unless he is on slicks. The Zs don't like to launch hard. Haven't see a 370 run 10s yet.

I'm gonna go do a bunch of practice runs on my old tires in the spring before I switch. I'd say high 10's would be a stretch but a possibility but I will need practice.

Don't take this the wrong way, but you'll be mid to high 11s until you change tires. And by that, I mean change into anything other than drag radials.

have you seen what happens to the stock axles when you launch on slicks?

Yes. I'm assuming anyone launching on slicks (or even DRs with this car) would be smart enough to have some spares on hand.

I'm guessing mid 11s at best on street tires.
