Busted Single Rib Case DTE Brace???
How many people have busted a single rib case with a DTE Brace? I have the single rib case out of my 01 Z06 that I have C6Z shafts in currently. I am looking to upgrade to 300M shafts and C6Z pinion support. Just wondering how many failures have occurred with the brace if any.

Not sure what a single letter case is but I have the stock rear in my z along with the DTE brace, never broke anything but only around 390 whp with stock clutch and have only run it in the 1/4 a few times. The brace is no guarantee against breaking the trans or diff housing, it's just good insurance against it.

Single rib case lol. Not sure why my tablet changed it to that lol. I know it isn't any guarantee but wondering how well they hold up vs. a 3 rib case with a brace.

All I know is my stock diff. (three rib) twisted itself into scrap hitting 3rd gear hard. It's now a RKT unit, and I have the ECS trans brace, and the Pfadt diff brace. I don't race, or hardly even drive it, so results may vary.
