CG trans:

Pro: Bisi dropped everything to run them.

Con: 20 years old and all of them need rebuilt (not much different from 88-91 D-series cable trans).

CG wins over 88-2000 design, it has support between 4th and 5th gear to PREVENT the shafts from trying to walk out the passenger side case.

People are shredding gears in the 88-2000 trannys, but Bisi is running OEM 1-5 with a Houseman (who built the black box) Custom final drive, likely 5.0:1

Also the advantage of the CG tranny that the axle centerline is about an inch lower, less to grind off the block.

JD, those pics are hosted on RPR

I'm supposed to meet Jamie Monday or Tuesday in Detriot if all goes well, but not looking good.

Does any company make an LSD for the CG trans?

Houseman somehow fitted a B16 Quafie in them, I have one here in Cincy that I'll be picking up soon.

Dunno if it required a custom ring gear, but the guy only paid $200 for the CG tranny with LSD.

What do you expect with Bone doing more than his usual... typing two words and then not explaining himself, Phil?
