I just finished yesting the V6 version of the spydershaft aluminum driveshaft.
track results:
.28 second drop in e.t. same day track test no other changes made!
as far as horsepower goes we usually only see about 8-10 hp gain on the dyno. at the track or on the street it allows the engine to rev quicker which is why the e.t.'s are quicker.
pricing will be roughly the same as my current GT shafts and the V6 is a bolt in deal.
these shafts have been tested to 130+mph and 600+rwhp with slicks.
pm or email me for more details as they aren't on the site yet.

Has anybody just bought the Aluminum Ranger Driveshaft from Ford and had it shortened the specified 9 inches? I think the entire project would be about $300 ....

no other changes made to the car, just the driving. .2-.3 quicker 60' makes all the difference in the world.

thats what mine are. problem is ford doesn't have many and they are no longer available cheap at FRPP so you have to get them from dealers+ you need the bolts and flange. so by the time you purchase the shaft pay to have it modified and rebalanced then buy the new bolts and flange you are no where near $300. everybody knows i don't make much on these since i told evryone how to do it 2 years ago.
