ok not alot happening recently as the mainshaft in the box bent, only by 100 thou but the gears were locking. made a right racket! and being a yec kit part was a nightmare to sort but were all back together now and also had another diff built by bernie at competition transmissions. its a 3.38 re rated and refilled viscous to the weight of my car so should be able to give it alot more power round the bends without it just going sideways now!
while it was apart i fitted a temp sensor just to see how hot its actually getting
new centre prop bearing (cause of mainshaft issue)
and some new exhaust wadding was way too loud!
going for another geo check then off to oulton to break it again! hopefully not!

warping it down the clifton quarter mile straight? good boy. the council should really consider putting up a pod style timing board there, would help the local lads measure their performance improvements more accurately. fbc is so out of touch with what local people want.

hi yes i did borrow a diff, but that wasnt a 3.38, it was a std 3.64 iirc.
The fact that your engie will rev to more than double what the std engine that was attached to the diff, just consider the gearbox ratios.
An incorrect gear ratio can kill a car in performance and drivability.

yep same diff swapped the 3.6 for 3.3 cwp and yep on correct power/ratios for the 3.38 if it was a standard box then 3.6 would of been fine

ok not updated in a while fair few changes sold the paddle shift in favour for stick shift. had a look at how its mounted on mk's race car and basically copyed it!
started by bending a bit of tube to mount it impatient as i am i couldnt wait to use a pipe bender so filled the pipe with some sand, got heating and bending!!
turned an old bolt down drilled and tapped it for the lever to mount
got a friend to tig it up for me
welded in
and at the box end
because of losing the paddles ive had to use a load cell to tell the ecu weather your going up or down the box to blip or cut here all done
