at or around this mark, should i change my axles for stronger ones? and if so where can i buy stronger ones at? any links? im hoping once i get my block/head back ill be close...just want to know after its broken in, are my axles going to snap the first time i get on it?

 

what mods do you have that you making 220hp. Its that 220 whp or crank hp?

 

http://www.driveshaftshop.com/ - always hear of them... (have not bought products from them)

for breaking part, it depends on your driving habbits, lower gears and launches put most of the stress.. if i was pushing 200's whp - my stock axles would be gone

 

Could you list your mods so we could all learn how to make that kinda power?
thanks.

 

stock axles are fine.
im still using the ones from when my car was turbo'd and making 350whp.

I got my axles from http://www.raxles.com for about $160 per side. Great customer service, I recieved my axles 4 days after I ordered. However, they still aren't in my car so no personal experience.

Also for dyno graphs of cars making 200+ whp and a mods list check out http://www.importreview.com .

I think you can also get axles from Competition Engineering(look it up because I dont have the link ) I would definitely think about replacing the axles if you are running that kind of power. I know several people that have snapped the stock axles with around that same kind of power. Better safe then sorry. I will be replacing my axles soon as well

 

check importbuilders for my mods...2l built block, killer head package, and a few other goodies are soon to be on their way thanks to insurance from my blown block..with tuning im hoping to be maybe around 210, but they say at IB with that setup they see around 220 or so w/ tuning...so who knows

 

i'm at 200 to the wheels....and i don't break axels!!!!

 

axles shmaxles!!! I ran 280+whp @ 10 psi with my B18C1 with tons of drag launches and hard driving for a year or so, on a set of $80 NAPA axles!!! When it's time to break they all break!!!
