dont forget straight cut drops.

if these are not fitted you will run into problems with that kind of power!*frown*

make sure the clearances are right on the S/C Idler & primary gear
also change the first motion shaft bearing, as a mileage one will be US

the helical gears should hold out if you do the above.

of course there are more mods etc on gearboxes but where do you stop!

Regarding the ratio of the F/D 3.2:1 turbo box

on 13s for what you want is just about right.

thats my opinion. *wink*
my advice is given on the questions you asked.

dont end up with a gearbox like this through not following the above advice buddy*wink*

you have gone this far at rebuilding etc..... dont spoil it
