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
