Default Re: Drive Shaft Tunnel Construction

Applied Racing Technology in Florida makes a very nice kit for the driveshaft enclosure.
saves a lot of fab time.
I've never liked sitting next to the driveshaft.
I've been constructing all my and my customers cars with a 1/8" steel tunnel on the drivers side for years,and started using the SFI enclosure recently.
Saw a guy loose an arm a few years back on a brand new car when the shaft broke when coming out of the water!
made me think a whole lot about the flimsy loops that NHRA required .
