High Output.
Does TKO600 change well in high rpm?

Rod Tarry has one and I think he revs to 8200rpm or higher. You're probably best ordering one from America

Don't know, engine is not ready yet. Somewhere between 700-800Nm I think. I'm hoping to finish it for the summer.

Mine has a .83 5th gear the .64 is not suitable with a very large gap between 4th & 5th almost like falling off a cliff. Its an overdrive gear in typical American style.
