Ordering New Transmission, but What Gears ?

Ed Carpenter · 04-03-2014, 11:53 PM

I just went through all this. I was quoted 4400.00 for a G101a G Force with shifter. So that's what your looking at with them. That was a reman not new. I got a CL4-4 Clutchless but I run SS. These things have gotten out of hand on price. Good luck.

Well.. I didn't get the transmission ordered on time for Mission Instead, went on the big European cruise ship, and another 7 days in Italy. hey... wasn't so bad:
( in Venice, view from the dock at our hotel )

Also, I got the first batch of my single plane 4 barrel 348/409 intakes machined and shipped !

So, I'm finally ordering my new Jerico this week. Looks like I'll go with the 3.19 first gear, running with the theory that I can launch at a lower RPM, and use the engine and the light flywheel to accelerate the car.

Thank you again, for all the help

Nice looking intakes!
I think you made the right choice on gear. It will offer you more options as to adaptability. You can jack it up or down & even go overboard on a track with teeth!! It also has some good points with clutch adjustment. It also offers a better % of drop between gears to take advantage of you engines capabilities. Good luck.
Ed, have you priced or bought a new Proflite, Coan or any other name tranny. Not cheap either!

You may still be able to make it to Mission.

There are delays and event rescheduling as BCCCA deals with the technical issues of the track resurfacing.
