My original 901 (never been rebuilt) tranny lost second gear. So I have found a loaner 901 transmission while I have mine rebuilt. I'm going to go for shorter gears. Can somone help educate me to options around shorter gears for a 901 transmission. I'm having a shop do the work but I want to educate myself to what track drivers think works best for gears. I have a 2.4 that makes something around 160 to 170 HP and use 265/45/16 tires in the rear. I will mostly be just having fun doing track days.
