Yes, Bernie Agaman. I drew a blank on that.

I'm sure that had a lot to do with NHRA finally allowing Corvettes to use solid axles.

We had a customer with a '79 stock Corvette that we installed a crate LS6 into (You used to be able to buy them in the late '80's for around $2,500). Turbo 350 trans, stock torque converter & 3.55 gears. Every couple of weeks he'd bring by his lastest half shaft failure, that he'd twisted like a pretzel, to show us. Of course he drove it like an animal.
