Hey all. 2 questions. Firstly. Had car on dyno today to tune boost and malpassi fuel reg. Once mixtures were sorted power run was made on 13psi from 80km/h to 125km/h where the auto transmission unfortunately slipped not allowing a full power run to be made. 212hp was made at rear wheels but decided not to go any further. Anyway im in need of what tranmissions to use. I don't want a 3 speed auto. My box isn't slipping at moment just the heat on the dyno caused it to/ So at moment it may have anywhere up to around 250hp at rear wheels with the highflow. What do we reconmend in a 4 speed. I want a full manual shift ie so i can use a ratchet shifter. Anyone know any good companies in syndey. I have heard paul from keas is very good but cannont finmd his number if anyone knows it. 2nd. My diff is also a NA 25 spline heap of ****. Now i have a center out of a lsd at home. Can i remove my NA center. Put in my lsd center. Remove 25 axles and replace with 28 spline axels. Is this possible. I realise i will still have drum brakes but will it fit inside cassing??? Thanks.

I have removed my Mb Number and will post my Office Number on the web site shortly. (03) 9464 3149 Hrs 11am till late. I would really prefer an email which I can answer when I eventually get home. I spend 1/2 my day answering phone calls (part of business) however was not getting any transmissions built so occassionally I have to turn the Mb off for a couple of days. A new worker starts soon so I should be able to pick up the pace. Since your in Woollongong, see Joe at Woollongong Automatics. Just started dealing with him- comes across as very knowledgable. Stay local where you can. Paul
