That has to put out some incredible torque in order to do that break the input shaft like that. Do you plan to replace the shaft with an OEM part? Any thoughts about hardening the shaft? I don't believe I've seen an aftermarket replacement.

we are banking on it being a fluke right now, he is on low boost and has not driven it hard and damn sure not making the power either Nelson nor 3SX are just yet so there is no real reason why it should of broke, so we are just replacing with OEM for the time being, now if it happens again then we will start looking at other alternatives

Unless Mikey's ebay name is japaneseengines, I'm going to say he wasn't the seller.

So Mike wants to buy this 3.5 and is pissed off that he mentioned it here, and now others are interested? Am I close?

Why didn't you buy it earlier if it was up there for months? I don't think it's Ninja work when it's up for so long champ. ;) Sell the base and whatever else you can, and go straight to Ray, or his man Scott. :)

[quote=""AudibleSilence""]No, I was planning on buying a 3.5 next week fo cheap. Found a fucked one on Ebay, but the damage wasn't an issue considering it needs a quasi build anyways. It had been on ebay for like 3 or 4 months, relisted time and time again. I mentioned it here and it got ninja'd by a 3s owner. :rolleyes: Meh such is life. I think I am gonna sell my base and use the money toward a new engine..whatever...pfft.[/quote]

Pirate > Ninja. Just be glad your ass didn't get lumberjacked. :eek:
