Driveshafts - Steel vs Aluminium vs Composite what is good for the street?
So what are the advantages of the different materials on the street? Is a composite driveshaft overkill? Steel certainly seems like the best bang for the buck. Also sounds like Aluminium sometimes has some vibration issues (which a Composite seems to solve?)
Trying to figure out what material to use for my drive-shaft for my 4L60E automatic.
My application:
BBC 69 Camaro with about 600hp at the crank or 500 at the rear wheels. This is a street car, that will see occasional track use (90% street / 10% track), not a daily driver but more than just a weekend cruiser. Car is setup to handle not just go fast in a straight line. 3.73 Gears mini-tubbed with 335/35/17 rear Michellin Ps/2 tires, want to put slicks on it for when it does see the 1/4 track.
