ahh.. if they are stronger, why does lt1 have steel and ls1 have aluminum? just easier to turn?98 z28, m6, monster clutch, eibach pro kit, custom twin turbo setup, 317 heads, z06 valve springs, arp rod bolts, 512rwhp at 10lbs. cobra eaterComment

The stock aluminum ls1 drive shafts have been known to break when abused. The guy I bought my new rear end from gave me a custom made 3 inch steel drive shaft with a 1350 u-joints.Originally posted by Gaspo View PostLast edited by mtuggle86; March 17th, 2011, 02:46 AM.01 NBM Base SS build #514 M6 Pat G/EPS 230/234 111+4 Cam, LS2 Heads, Tick Master,Extreme Chassis 8.8 with 4.30's, BMR LCA And Torque Arm, Edelbrock PHB, FIPK intake, Ported TB.

I believe balance issues with the steel drive shafts played a bigger role in switching to aluminum on most ls1 cars then the weight.Originally posted by Gaspo View Post01 NBM Base SS build #514 M6 Pat G/EPS 230/234 111+4 Cam, LS2 Heads, Tick Master,Extreme Chassis 8.8 with 4.30's, BMR LCA And Torque Arm, Edelbrock PHB, FIPK intake, Ported TB.

It might be the equivalent of putting lipstick on a pig, but would this be a direct replacement for the driveshaft on a V6, or are the V6 and LS1 shafts different lengths?
