Katech Performance Unleashes its "Street Attack 500"

CLINTON TOWNSHIP, Mich. - Katech Performance is proud to introduce the engine Corvette dreams are made of - the "Street Attack 500." The all-aluminum, 8.2-liter V8 dynamo displaces 500 cubic inches to generate a devastating 600 horsepower and 600 lbs.-ft. torque.

Steeda's aluminum driveshafts for the 05-08 Mustangs are the best aluminum 1-piece driveshaft available!

Wed, 28 Nov 2007 22:32:00 -0800

These driveshafts do not use a flange adapter like competitive versions which can contribute to vibration. Instead they come with a completely new pinion flange which the driveshaft directly bolts to.

The GT model driveshafts are a tapered 3.5" to 4 inch design giving them extra clearance needed to avoid interference that can happen on lowered cars with full 4" shafts.

Weighing 24lbs less than the factory GT model driveshaft this 1 piece driveshaft greatly reduces rotating mass giving you up to 2 tenths improvement in 1/4 mile performance!

Benefits
* Up to 2 tenths improvement in 1/4 mile
* Reduced rotating mass and vehicle weight
* Smooth operation

Fits Vehicle Model:
Ford Mustang GT & V6

Fits Model Year:
2005, 2006, 2007, 2008
