Doing research on these trannys. Spoke to some shops that represent them but not directly to the company since they are currently moving to a larger facility.
(application - probably being hooked to a SBC in a RCR chassis, not GT40)
The sequential is cause for uncontrolled drooling ....for a relatively reasonable price (compared to 25K Xtrac). But the shop I spoke with says they are real heavy and somewhat long ...so if they are heavy with big gearsets why are they not rated for more HP? Or is Mendeola just very conservative? Noted there may be a direct to SBC bell housing in the future.
MD4-2D seems also to be a good option, small size, low weight, mid engine shift design and massive gearset selection. VW bell housing may be a too limiting? Any Idea on how this box campares to OEM boxes being used from a strenght standpoint?
TIA
