At the time ~313whp. In the waterbox, I stabbed the throttle for a sec and then *BAM*. Scared the crap outta me. :th_laugh-lol3:Quote:

wow prolly some bad metal
those are sick pictures dude, that's nasty. i've heard from a lot of people on this forum that zzp's parts don't go well with these cars. i'll probably stay away from them if i ever get to building
ZZP sucks.
^^^ Was me, I hacked.
Wow this is still going on? 4 pages of this? I would be willing to bet that only 1 company makes these shafts but yet it's ZZP'S junk? Race cars break down all the time, you know they are buying the best stuff available but they still break. Even the f***ing shuttle breaks down. Geez....Whatever happened to that adois? F***k
Shows how much of a uninformed moron you are. Thanks for letting me know to totally dismiss you ahead of time.Quote:

Well, he called you out because we know for a fact it's different companies making ZZP's versus Intense's.Quote:

If ZZP didn't say that this particular shaft would not break with a supercharged car, there wouldn't even be that much of an issue. OP would just be proud he makes enough power to break it and move on to get a new shaft.

Well id pretty much call the BBB on zzp as they are falsely advertising a product and wont replace it.
Odd. That input shaft snapped/radially cracked on the splines where the drive sprocket sits? Is this the same shaft from Wolf's ride from earlier in the thread that still had the seemingly undamaged pump shaft hanging out of the bell? And the other end took a dump in the TC.
2 Breaks? Hrrmm? My forensic diagnosis would be that the shaft split diagonally inside the TC, then whacked the remaining input shaft laterally, snapping it inside the accum cover. But that cannot be the case, because the pump shaft would have gotten mangled in the process.
Oh, who cares. I've been watching too much NCIS.
Wow Street Wolf, you weren't ****ting me about the damage you told me about over the phone. Wow, that thing is destroyed!
Hate to see this happen to you man, glad you're back up and running though.
