As my car will be primarily a street car with daily-driver duties, I won't be getting anywhere near your power levels. I enjoy the occasional drag race, but I would prefer not to install a roll bar, so 11.50 or slower in the quarter. I will also not be installing a drag-only suspension and won't be using slicks. ET Street Radials are probably the stickiest tire I'd ever use.

Based on all of that, I've set my power level goals at about 450rwhp.

 

A basic upgraded T56 will fit your build with no trouble at all .

 

And what upgrades would that entail?

I, like Taner, am not the kind of person that likes to cut corners. I'm going to build the rest of the car to withstand more power than I'm actually going to give it. I don't want to be running at 99% of what the parts are capable of handling. That's not enough of a safety factor for me. I don't like breaking parts!

So, when I say I'm going to have ~450rwhp, that means I want my drivetrain to be able to handle at least 550rwhp.

 

Tanner, your car looks great in the vidio man that thing moves!! It sounds like you leave at a relatively low RPM?

Rich, I respect your opinion a lot, and would like to hear more on this.
Not to hijack this thread, lets hypothetically say you have 1000 hp (like Tanner) in a 3200+# car.
How many Lencos would you stack (# of gears)?
Why the Lenco and not just a clutchless Liberty or...?
What kind, or whos clutch would you use?
