There was a similar HRM article about late-model Mustang and mod motors a short while ago -- it didn't paint a very flattering picture either.

Brave talk about axles from someone with a 7.5" behind their LS1. As far as I'm concerned, we need to start forming class action suits against detroit when they put IRSs in muscle cars.

God knows I tried to break the 7.5 in the El Camino for over three years before putting it away in the barn last summer. Contrary to accepted wisdom, the little bastage just wouldn't give up, not with street tires nor with drag radials. Haven't been beating the absolute snot out of itwith big burnouts and high-RPM launches, but consistently cutting passes in the high-12s. I dunno, I guess there's an exception to every rule???

Gotta wonder as Fiat begins selling their own cars in their Chrysler showrooms,

how much longer until they drop the Chrysler line entirely? ???
