Stocker 4 speeds
 

What manufacturer would you recommend as far as stocker 4 speeds and why ?

Re: Stocker 4 speeds
 

Jerico, DR 4 or DR 4.4. Long shifter. Start out with a McLeod Soft Lock. It works, it is rock solid, and racers who will step up to help you run it. Up in your area, you need to talk to Steve Ficacci and Ralph Popora.

Say .for example . What would it cost to convert a 66 nova 283 from a p/g to a stick, New stuff and used stuff prices ? I have been thinking about this for the past 2 seasons. I am sure i have spent almost as much in auto combos as it would have to change .This may put some fun back into my racing. PS i already have a clutch pedal in the car.

Jerico used 2500.00

Bellhousing(buy a quicktime 450.00)

aluminum flywheel 300.00

Clutch used from 750.00 to 1500.00

Long shifter 400.00 new

I bought my stuff used this is about what I paid. There are great deals out there. Had a friend just buy an Advanced Clutch used for 750.00 with the flywheel.

I was notified just the other day that Mr. Gasket has bought Quick Time.

Re: Stocker 4 speeds
 

Crap! Probably a good move on Mr. Gasket as everybody wants a QT.

Finespline, There's a smokin' deal from Mike Iaccono in the for sale section on a Jerico with pistol grip shifter for $2K. Better jump on it!
And there's no sense in having a 4-speed in Stock or SS without a good clutch. There are HUGE differences between them, not only in ET but in the "fun factor". PM me if you need more info.
The best thing I ever did in racing was going to a 4-speed. It is so much more fun that I would never consider going back to an auto.

FUNNY THAT NOBODY EVEN MENTIONED A G-FORCE TRANS REASON BEING------------?:confused:

Re: Stocker 4 speeds
 

I heard that also. I would say that if you are on the fence on buying one, it would be good to pick one up. I don't think they are buying it to lower the price!!!

If you want to know where to get a great deal on one, let me know. I don't know how long the supply that is out there will last.

Jerico DR4. I have had many of them over the years. I have never had a new one, but I can say that they all have been very fun to race.

Good clutch and a good pilot bearing is important. Skimp here and feel the pain.

The Jerico is under 70 lbs. I have heard good things about the G101, but I have not used one.

The Gforce in the 5 speed case is a nice trans. Very heavy. A lot of used Jericos are out there. They have been around awhile, so if you buy used,do your homework.


P.S. Tony Hernandez had an Advance Clutch for sale in the classified. Jim
