What is involved in running a 915 behind a V8. I know you either have to flip the ring and pinion or run the tranny up side down. Is that possible? What are the good options for shifting one?
What are decent used ones going for? How much will I have to throw at one to freshen it up? What gear ratios are available stock? What years should I look for? I need something that can handle a LS1 on steroids. |

I have been making 125mph blasts up and down 101 while tuning the injection on the green car I posted about. The Woodside to 101 ramp is semi long with a S turn leading onto the straight portion of the ramp. The car will be at 130mph before the end of the ramp if I exit the S correctly. I was actually testing the new Tarret sway bar through the S when this happened.
Lyressa's car will get a LS1 engine when we recover from my F-up. B |
