Default I have a question....

How strong is the stock 2-piece drive shaft? as in, will it hold full bolt-ons and 15in radials?

It'll handle that just fine. There are even people here running the stock DS in FI situations. Only when you start getting up over 500whp does it start to become much of a serious concern.

Should hold fine but the advantages of the one piece DS can and will free up HP! save like 23 lbs too!
