There are other people that use the term “Cameo” and not the celebrity guest appearance on a sitcom “cameo” either.

the guys at sinapse cant say for sure but the think it was already cracked on one of the front ears that held the u joint in up fropnt near the splines it happened at 5600 rpms it slice thru 3 inches of my tranny tunnel like it was butter and the shaft bent like 30 degrees and was actually curved at the end (not bent but sorta like twisted) it was a stock ls1 driveshaft i had in but they also said i could of also been unbalanced because at certian mph speed it would make the car kinda of rattle so it blew

oh and buy the way yah pete was screwing with people sayinmg i made the much power at the wheels N/A impossible ill be lucky if it makes the much at the crank but those number i think are good for a moderatley built untuned lt1
