Okay after a little trail time at the farm, and breaking plenty of 1310 Ujoints and a 1310 cv cardain joint I decided it was time to upgrade

1350 U-bolt yokes on both axles, and some good spicer 1350 joints should help, ordered some non cv 32 spline 1350 yokes for the 300, and the parts to build some 1350 driveshafts

I'm going have to get that done to mine too! How much power gain did you get?

 

[guffey24]

I'm going have to get that done to mine too! How much power gain did you get?

315hp stock in my 05 motor

your 2000 model is right at 285hp

I wouldn't say power or hp being changed much, it just gets to the power band fast

 

[spraypaintman]

Does he change the computer or chip it?
