cool thanks man for the pictures. i kinda understand what your saying, i think your saying the disc doesnt matter if i dont have the proper pressure plate. and i can use a performance pressure plate with just a regular disc and it will be just as good. also im not sure how im supposed to modify the axle, do you have any pictures of that?

anybody going to say anything?????? btw what can i expect as a difference of this transmission over the other one?

shorter gears meaning around 3000rpms in 5th gear going about 60mph..

other than that, thats it nothing special about it.. maybe a somewhat of a lil quicker acceleration but not by much its only a sohc..

its ok i understand what you meant. my top speed wont be as great, because shorter gears means i will be out of gears at a slower mph, but on the tranck, you dont really reach 5th gear anyways, so thats where it comes in very handy, ive never got to 5th gear in a real race anyways lol...in the 8th mile i barely made it to third.
