Doc Evil's Transaxle Builds Options

[shoguneagle]

Doc Evil has outdone himself on my transaxle build.. Everything from the building process, to finishing, to shipping was done in the highest level of care, concern, and personal integrity. Lookingt at the transaxle and how it was shipped, I see the personal attention to every detail in producing one of the finest finished product that I have ever seen.

The Doc is one of a few people that I have seen in my life time who I would completely trust to build any of my needed parts, etc. I do not need to get involved since I know he builds to the highest level of personal integrity. Even more so, he seeks to keep the rest of us informed on how, why, etc; I believe Doc is a natural teacher who really likes to see people learn and understand; willing to share his knowledge and expertise.

Eric Shea is another one like the Doc.

How do I know?? I have seen a lot of different people in my 70 years; military, banking, aviation, etc so they both have been judged with all my background. You can depend on the highest quality job from each of them.

Do support all our manufacturers, vendors and members because this is where we all get the best help. There are many of our members who do operate at this level.

How many people put themselves through medical school building transaxles and still do it as something to support his other toys the Doc has in the hopper???

Thanks, Doc, for everything. Now get back to work being the "GREAT DOC EVIL OF THE EVILWORKS".

Sorry, but the GA set is in my transaxle build!!!!!! After all my name is "mr.PITA". LOL!!!

I could not resist "diggin'" Doc Evil!!!

Mike built my transaxle with A,F,O,X, flipped H gears. AKA, "a flipped FOX". This should keep my fifth gear rpm somewhere around 2800rpm at about 70mph. The gears 1-4 should give me very good gear range to match the 3.2 Carrera engine.

Right now the transaxle is setting in my living room with my wife walking around it with a glare in her eyes I just understand. It does make a great decoration piece and does match everything in the room!!!! LOL

seriously, the transaxle is so well done that I just hate to put it in the car; but, once I get it in the car my "hot rod days" have returned. There will be many trips in the 914 once I get it shaken down and dependability established.

Again, thanks to Mike.
