yea, for stock AWD, why make your car slower? less you plan on running sub 10's.... I just go around in circles and smoke the tires...

The cars I posted are unibody 1Gs with RWD Powerglides and actually probably the same car. Rau's car is tubed and partially tubed with a 5-speed manual G-Force tranny, slipper clutch, electronic suspension that changes as he goes down the track, a crap load of chassis work done by a high-end chassis fab shop. You could probably drive a car similar to the 1Gs on the road, Brent's can only go straight for a 1/4 mile at a time. Brent ripped apart SlowBoy Racings Pro Outlaw RWD 1G recently to re-do it correctly. The Starion is a better platform to do a RWD 4G63 street car in, the stock rear end went low 9s in Eric Plebani's 4G63 RWD Starion.

Yeah, the rear end is pretty stout. I ahve read that they are good for repeated launchs in the 600hp range.

Yeah, the two pics Shane posted are the same car. Bruce bought it from Jesus who bought it from Bushnuts.

You could do it with alot of parts from Summit. It's just a rear subframe and Ford 9" welded into the stock unibody DSM. Then you need to turn the engine 90 degrees and use an adapter plate, domestic RWD tranny and a custom driveshaft. Cool, but lot's of work and money. I think that one in the pics switched hands for around $20K a few years back, I half thought about buying it. The blue paint job was a HUGE improvement over that ugly-ass yellow paint scheme Bushnuts had.
