I guess i understand, and take stuff personal too. The reason i asked about the injectors, (sorry to go ot in this thread) is we have noticed huge power differences is timing changes with the different spray pattern. So if tuning changes werent made, then max power was not achieved, while running a stock pattern, it might have been because they dont seem to be as touchy with tuning. But i have not spent any time on an engine dyno, so really i dont know.

As far as the axles, i have no question in mind the design is better, and will hold up better. I also think if yukons were dual splined, they would have a totally different failure rate, but i have yet to break their good ones, ive beat the $hit out of them on our power tracks, but thats one thing we get lucky on, we dont have a lot of rough tracks.. but both of my good sets are twisted over a good revolution, so i took them out to get a new set, i think i should have just kept them in. They were once a good option with the warranty and all, but now you cant get the good ones.

On 2 occasions ive lifted my front wheels off the ground on an unlock, and they have held...
But then again, i havent neutral dropped mine, im sure that would give them hell :D



It's all good Rob. On the axles, my guy that was trashing them so easy was becuase he was running a 10.8:1 final drive on 900hp and it would throw parts almost every hook at the end of the track when the sled hit but it was impressive. Gearing helps with axle life forsure.

On the injectors, yes changing the tuning around to match the injector will get the best power for the combo but sometimes best power and engine life don't get along and I don't like crossing that line. I have done a ton of dyno tuning with the different nozzles and there are setups where they really shine and then some setups they absolutely suck unfortunately. All the puzzle pieces have to work together, one piece off and the whole thing looks like crap. Side note on the Kyle Mod truck, Tony and I get frustrated from the all the unhappy CIU customers wanting us to fix what he screwed up. It gets really old but is good for our businesses. Personally I'm glad he did it because now Tony and my guys have motivation to go out and get him on the track.:D

The three things you talk about have great details that many don't want on the net. If you would like all the details feel free to call me and I would be more than happy to fill you in on all the details..... Here is my number 989-550-1288 I try to keep it positive on the net but some times that's hard to do. Sorry if I come across wrong. I'll try to stay away from your posts.

I have facts to back up what I post so calling me out on something I didn't post all the details means if you want to know more than one would need to contact me in person.

FYI- Randy's told me last week when I called that they only had one set of axles and spool left. They also said it (spool) was discontinued. They mislead me when they told me the axles could be any custom length, but then could only remove 2" when I wanted custom length axles 8" shorter each side. Tony was able to come through, and I'm excited to see the final product.

You dont have to stay away from my posts, i beleive all of them werent even in my threads or anything. Sorry if it came off wrong, but i was just calling them out. Its what i do, a lot of bs claims are made on the internet just to sell parts (no im not saying this is what your doing) so i like people to elaborate on them, i also know people that have done a lot of testing with intakes, and had very different results with modified y bridges vs runner style, long or short. If anything i was pulling a knife out that you were driving in. I have no hard feelings, and really, i dont need more elaboration on them, as both items in question we have made work really well, but i dont run the big hoss set up anymore and the tips we have no choice.

Mini spool fits in the g80 carrier, itsfairly easy to install as well, held a full season in our 850ish hp 2.6 truck, even with duals on the rear for a hand full of pulls! We are upgrading to tonys 38spline setup for next year!!

what kinda axle shafts did you use? Im running the same mini spool this year. I'm sure I will break some shafts this year.

Pretty sure he ran SCS's, he sold them. Cant remember if they was twisted or not when pulled. We actually bought the mini spool off him and ran it last year for 5 hooks with stock axles. broke one axle. We are upgrading to the dual spline and spool setup as we speak!

Yeah I ran the mini spool and dual splined SCS, I sold them to 05smoker, they held up a full season and were not twisted. Only other 30 spline option i believe is Yukon.

Yeah, I had a dumb moment, we run your axles. When are the 300s due to be released?
We should have more 300m shafts in within the next couple weeks. We do have a couple set left.

whats the warranty on the new axles?
Workmanship warranty. We had a batch of bad flanges and the company stood behind the flanges and new shafts. And that was on the standard shafts. I dont think they will make that mistake twice.
