Going conservative this time around, shooting for mid 600's and a REALLY safe tune.

Very nice, you're gonna spin all day on street tires.

Here's the new back wheels and DR's. A full 28" tall (effective gearing will be 3.52 at this height) and a full 12.5" wide with a nice tall sidewall. Should be able to hook with these!

It already does, at least on cold pavement. Lined up with a C6 a few nights ago and did their usual 60 mph roll race. Grabbed third and smoked the tires. Not looking forward to a couple hundred more hp on the stock pizza cutters at all!

Any worry about axles or anything breaking with that much power and sticky tires? Still not used to what these 5.0s can handle

I didn't worry about it before, but it bugs me now, hence the new axles and c-clip eliminators. That way, if I do snap an axle, at least it wont walk out of the housing and cause a crash.

Looks like they are moving right along -

It definitely won't win any beauty contests! What really ticks me off is how quiet they are now. With the new gears and thicker case, you can't hear them hardly at all.

I like that. My car has a reputation as a slow, quiet hybrid to maintain.
