Expensive but well worth it.

They do make a better driving experience, especially with

a high 1st gear.

My XE does rev high, but 1st is good for 40, 2nd for 70, 3rd for 105

I have no idea what 4th & 5th may do.......

[maccavvy]

that's well high geared.. my Ro is similar in gear speeds. top gear in that is 0.5 ratio... wtf

[Bob Tucker]

Those speeds are at 7750 rpm.....5th is 20mph per 1000 revs.

I fitted the V6 type 9 with 3.9 diff

1st still a bit low for me gets better with the engine I've just finished building 7k red line

Hoping it's even better with the 8k motor but would still love a much closer set

Yep late present - £620 plus the dreaded ! Long first gear and close ratio on 1,2,3,4 standard 5th heavy duty bearings etc.

I did look at having mine rebuilt but it was coming out at more after I got the long first gear fitted then I could buy this for ??

now just got to fit it.

[Bob Tucker]

thats a pretty good price....

Its welll worth the aggro of fitting it!
