Has anyone broken the TR3650's input shaft?
#11
My 60ft times have all been on my stock input shaft. My fastest is on the sig and Im cutting 1.6-1.7 all the time and I never had a failure. Mine is an auto as well. My car is at brenspeed right now. Its actually just getting done. They have to finish the break miles on the motor and finish dyno tuning it. Im picking it up Saturday. Should be around 525 when hes done.

And there is the question. It appears that the 3650 can handle some good amount of power if you don't drag race it. Many of us drag race. Is it worth the $1500 to install the input shaft when we get near 500 ft/lbs of torque or do we have to spend $5K or so to change to another trans like the T56?

Thats pretty damn good, especially with those 60ft times means you're not exactly being easy with it. I have been pondering letting my 700rwhp engine currently being built run with the 3650. But I won't be drag racing it on the track with the transmission or power shifting. Just don't want to buy a 10 spline clutch just to twist the input shaft and get a 26 spline 6-speed....
Is that 700 at the wheel or crank??? I'd probably be a bit timid as well. You will be pushing some good power. Who is doing the work

Thanks. I did have brenspeed install a hardened input shaft. Since the motor was going to be out. So really the only thing I have done is put PA deep trans pan. I think these trannies are rugged. I think they are ok to about 550. I certainly try to drive with some sense even when I'm at the track. My feeling is if the tranny goes then I have a reason to get a new one.

Edit: After looking at your mods in your sig you are running an auto.... We are talking tr-3650s here...

I didn't expect that to be your response! What clutch do you use and at what rpm to do you leave the line? Sorry for all of the questions but these days $5000 for a T56 is just not in the budget.
