quiet drop gears
Turbo Mini Forums

has anybody tried trimming a few thou of the teeth on straight cut drops to make them quiet , and did it work ?, im thinking of the bit in the old floppy viz book where he talks about doing this on the teeth of the sc box .
thanks

Medusa + injection = too much torque for the dyno ..https://youtu.be/qg5o0_tJxYM

Are the standard A+ drops not strong enough ?

At least they make a straight cut box civilized in 4th.

Not that I minded the box at all. Never had SC drop gears though.

9.85 @ 145mph
202mph standing mile
speed didn't kill me, but taxation probably will

dont touch them the are noisy but hey thats the atracting factor of sc drops

always looking for them bigger bunches of bannanas

There is a guy in Cullumpton (sp) Devon who cuts cogs and if you paid him, he'd cut you a set of double helicals |>>>>|, according to a guy I spoke to who used him to make a load of special gears for some food machinery.

Bugger off, I'm getting there.
