Yeah when I spun my hub it also welded itself into one piece . That carnage is so crazy. Any service records in that motor? No can bearing ledge repairs? Lots of time on the rev limiter? Just doesn't make a ton of sense and I'm trying to make it make sense lol. When I spun my hub my cams looked mint and I'm still reusing them in my built motor just with a different head.

You ABSOLUTELY must change your username.
You so earned N54_Destroyer
Not unless your hub is pinned or keyed. It just attaches to the crank pulley and encloses the crank hub bolt making it impossible to turn your motor over without taking it all the way off and mine just backed out with the crankbolt when I spun my hub and was still bolted into the pulley and the pulley was backed off
Ok I know what you need. Closed deck darton sleeved block all the goodies , power glide or th400 built to 2k hp and a Ford 9 in. If you break that we'll have to change your name to n54_destroyer no questions asked. Because basically its hardly bmw at that pointSir i don't need this negative energy lmao. You stay making my cars break.
So are you saying the hub can spin even though the bolt is fully torqued ??
Yes the hub can spin from other influences even when fully torqued due to the flawed oem design.
I personally run the VTT v2 hub for about 3 years along side the CBC now since before covid and had no issues.
Just two major examples are drastic changes in rpm and axel tramping that will put enough shock load on the motor to spin the oem hub.
The major reason is from the bolt backing out and this can be avoided with the CBC so that can be easily ruled out and avoided cheaply.
Some call it a gimmick, I call it cheap insurance.
I don't agree on a lot off things with Tony but some of his products are good and that's up to the individual to choose.
I'm no VTT supporter but when a product works I use it.

And in case you think I changed words or misquoted anything....

Some of you guys are really not understanding how this works. If it were to spin it would have failed. The design turns twisting force into increased clamping force, drastically decreasing the incident of spinning in the first place. You'll break things before it slips.

I don't think you understand what the CBC suppose to do.
I said the bolt cant back out from the hub but the whole hub can slip and back out with the bolt even though its locked to the hub due to
the flawed oem design, i don't think you are not grasping what I'm saying.

Another way would be you can weld the bolt to the hub and it will never back out but the hub can slip and back out with the bolt
even dough its one piece.
The CBC just locks the bolt so it cant loose tension on the hub but if it spins anyway its not due to the bolt loosing tension on the hub.
Hope that explains it better.

When your your talking about the spline lock, when its tensioned in place there and the CBC is installed to stop the bolt backing out
there is no way in the world it will spin.
Its impossible, you will break the crank before you spin the VTT spline lock hub.
