I have a 74-914 with a 4 cyl Raby engine 2270cc. It has the 901 side shift trans. Tired of the dog bone pattern. What would it cost to go to a 4 speed, 1st to 2nd position and make the smaller gear integral with the main shaft and possibly replace 4th gear with a lower highway ratio gear for mileage. I know this is common with V8 conversions etc. What is your thoughts. Thanks

Its already a 4 speed
Just block off 1st gear ...ye old (Mental block ) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif) How hard is that ? But i dont have a raby engine so i guess you have cash to burn ? Lugging a higher highway gear ..not good for the engine imho or mpg or any temp etc with this engine Ask jake ? My 2332 /4. Is on the stock 901 I guess highway gearing 5th is a little short But keeps me from getting arrested Shout out to the cheap sob And happy Thanksgiving to all you other Just : sob Its raining so that canceled my plans To take out my 914 and go 91mph down the 91 freeway with a hot number in the other seat . a drink in my hand and a big cigar . But maybe next Thanksgiving |
