This is the final pull that my car made this saturday. It is a 94 lt1 6spd, mods are crane cam, tpis long tubes, dual 3" exh, 30lb inj, 58mm tb, lt4 valve springs. Only 350 cubes and stock heads. After I got it back I put a nos setup on it and headed to the track. On the first pass I did a nice burn out to heat up the et streets, pulled to the line held the rpm's at 4500 dropped the clutch and bam there goes the rear! :sad: 100$ tow truck ride home and disassembly shows the torsion on the outer axle was enough to shear it in half, destroying the bearing, ujoint, and abs sensor. Oh well you gotta pay to play :cry
Your dyno numbers look about right for cam only and long tubes. Not surprised of the breakage with the ET Streets and 4500 RPM clutch dump with nitrous.
Those #'s are strong, especially considering they are from a mustang dyno, which seem to read considerably lower than the dynojet's. I saw a tv show this weekend and the same car/setup on a dynojet was ~290whp vs ~240 on the mustang dyno... :cheers:

I dont think Ive ever seen another lt1 make those kind of numbers with just a cam. The nitrous was not beisng used off the line so it didnt play a role in the breakage. The cam is a crane #109831. The tune made a big difference in this car. I hogged out my maf ends and it made the mix real lean with the base tune.
