Take a newly rebuilt tranny.
what is the weakest link (aside from first gear burnouts) What breaks? Is it the bearings that cant handle it? I dont doubt it...its a flimsy looking thing. What else breaks? I am talking about large motors, V8 conversions etc... Looking for real world events...no speculation. Rich |
