October 27, 201114 yr #131 Author It's made 988hp/734rwkw so far but broke when it was on it way well over 4 figures, was already at 935hp/697rwkw at 4000rpm so can only imagine where it's gonna be with another 3k's worth or revs.Nah no billet shaft would prefer to break another one than something major down the line.
October 28, 201114 yr #132 Only just dillz, xft's did a twin turbo xr8 that makes 720kw & the next is typhoon freak at 647 I think. Hopefully wont be long & they'll be turning it up as well & should all goin well take over but we'll be right there just turning it up more, stupidity has no limits lolThat TTXR8 (Belongs to CAT600 from here and AFF) has gone through something like 3 or 4 ZF Input shafts.
October 28, 201114 yr #133 Author Yeah dan has killed a few on the street and track, not sure if he's blown one on the dyno yet though. He's goin to the trouble of billet everything but not sure if I want to go that far with the zf Edited October 28, 201114 yr by qik1
November 1, 201114 yr #134 Author Well Jamie pulled the zf out last night and yep clean snapped the input shaft. We'll or rather he'll fix it and have another crack at it in the comin weeks
November 1, 201114 yr #135 I've pulled out a couple broken input shafts of Allison torque convertors, both snapped on a 45 degree angle. Was this the case with your input shaft?
November 2, 201114 yr #136 Author Havent seen it in the flesh just got a few photos, looks to be pretty clean
November 2, 201114 yr #137 Ive been working at Nizpro for the last week or two and I've already seen several snapped shafts, all seem to snap pretty clean.
November 3, 201114 yr #139 Author Seems ours is a clean break as well, it's gonna have to go in a trophy case lol
