hmm i had a hmt but i had to sell it due to financial reasons also i have a refurbished axle (broken then welded back together) and im not sure whether that will handle the boost.

i can see snapping the joint, but i thought the shaft was supposed to be pretty strong

Axles are $80. I wouldn't think about that. I'd be thinking about what that guy has done to his motor to make him not want a boosted car over an N/A car. :-\

im thinking of trading him and swapping out that motor and putting in a new less milage Z6 with a cam and port and polished head seeing as d series are relitively cheap, i have a 62 nova that im going to sell come spring time so that will fund whatever i want to do. i wish i could get some pics up damnit :-\

well anyways man i dont think you should trade, your car is your car and you know what it has and what it needs, that will save you a lot of stress believe me. Carbon steel is very brittle when it gets hot and in the wrong conditions can snap relatively easy. Get a new set of axles if you have that on your conscience man
