I am checking interest in repro 904 main shafts. I think I can get them either made or made out of 901 shafts for much less than the $1800-2000 that they are commanding now.

Chris,

at $400-ish, I'm interested in buying a main shaft from you
I could provide a core if needed. I don't have the money today, but will get it and would love to know availability when you get things figured out

I'm running a 3rd gear moved to 2nd shaft currently. Mine is splined by making it out of a stock F-mainshaft exactly as your proposing. The current train of thought is that this mod is good for 200hp to the rear wheels in racing conditions. Its been done this way in colorado for approximately 10 years and held up to testing at 200hp

I'm currently running a 2nd gear of "J" with this mod

let me know if you make up some shafts in this manner
