is it more a problem of not being good to downshift into 1st from 2nd or is it more of a dead stop start in 1st - could destroy tranny and why ??

I guess the issue is that if you block it off you probably won't break it, but if you do break it off - you're not going to be able to use the broken shaft anymore... you'll have to find another one. It's not going to break in the right place such that you can keep using it - so you might as well set it up so you can't break it and save yourself the issue later.
It's not necessarily going to be something intentional... you might have wet feet and your foot slip off the clutch or something. While you're in there - you'll probably want a taller 5th. I only have a subie motor and I want a taller 5th... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |
