Here are some pics of the Albin's dog change conversion for the 930 trans.The center case needs to be clearanced in the area of the first gear drive gear.With a taller ratio,the larger gear will contact the case,although not much material needs to be removed.

I fabbed up a bracket to bolt to the bell housing bolts and mounted a small Willwood pusher to a modified 915 release arm. I just welded some 3/16 plate to it to form up a double sheer mount for a 3/8 heim on a threaded release rod.

Alright Russ,and others who tolerate the 930's shift quality! I promise to post up some pics of the Albins dog gear conversion later today,but let me at least give my first impressions from this past weekend's first outing with them. I am very pleased! The ability to shift as fast as my hand...

Russ,yes I took pics of the gears out on the bench,and then in the trans before I put the center housing back on.But,as I can hand build an exhaust header easier than I can work a computer,I need tips on the easiest way to post pics on this forum.Another forum I belong to needs the pics to be...

Yes,there SHOULD be an update by now..............but...you know how things go.At least the house now has central air con!!!Also the retaining wall in our back yard is redone along with regrading the yard for the paver patio and deck,but somewhere in there has been a minimal amount of time for...

Terry, Where did you buy this car from? It looks alot like an unfinished project for sale at the Carlisle import/kit car show a few years ago. Good luck, it may take some work,but it sounds like you have a sound plan of attack.

Most of the serious racers I've seen running the LS type engines (DP,Grand AM,WC) tap the outlets in the head for pipe threads and install a pipe thread to -3 fitting.Then run -3 (brake/gauge tube) to the header/fill tank.I currently run the setup such as yous(albeit without the dip under the...

Russ, Thanks for the info...As for the trans,I was told there would be a 6 to 8 week lead time,so it will be a while before I can give a review on the Albins gears.By that time your season will be winding down so it may be a good off season project.As a DGB is out of the budget(unless someone...

Russ, I have a few questions on a post from a few weeks ago.When you made the spraybar for the 930 trans :1. What size holes did you use to spray onto the gears, 2. Did you use the same size hole and method for the ring and pinion(and close up the "end" of the tube) or did you aim the end of...

Hey Jac, Did my Fellow Fiero owner Jack Ondrack arrive in NZ yet?I wonder how he can top the results he had last year!! Wish him good luck for me as I did not get a chance to call him before he left! Dave D.

The MSD systen IS the GM performance system of the older LS1 engines.They (GM) sold the rights to MSD when they changed to the later style reluctor wheel ignition system on the LS2 and later engines.For a LS1 based engine,you would need a system for the earlier (24k?) reluctor ignition.The...

I am using the MSD stand alone kit that comes with maps for many different configurations of LS engines already on the CD. My car uses a Z06 spec LS6 with the original cam and custom 1 3/4 headers as the only modification. I had to rebuild the supplied harness(was set up for front engine,my...

Anti-squat is designed into the mounting locations of the suspension pick up points and the resulting angles of the control arm/radius rods. The forward angle of the axles would have no influence on anti-squat.

I had the same issue with Dan's.My shop is only on the other side of town from my house,and the UPS delivery times are unpredictable to residences.I always get my shop packages the same time each day.Even though the billing address and the delivery address are the same zip code(and just a few...

I encountered the same situation,930 trans to GM hub/bearing assembly.I contacted McKenzie's in CA(offroad buggy supplier) and they have the stubaxles to fit the GM spline in the outboard hub,but with a 930 C/V flange.I'm sure this is very similar to the Dutchman piece. They also supply axles...

I am in the process of putting an order of a dog-change kit for my 930 in with Albins this week.California Motorsports is the US rep for them and has been very helpful.A few points of interest not on the website: 1.Almost any ratio(within reason) is do-able as not all available ratios are listed...

Ian,you have a PM

Was it approved for ST1 or ST2?

Are you using the Dzus buttons that have the integral flange and stay on the panel after release(captured)?How many panels are you going through and how thick are they?How thick is the spring plate?Unless the 'glass is unusually thick,I find that I can get the right grip length pairing between...

Iain, Would you know if the outside dimentions are similar between a DGB and VGC?I am most concerned with the distance from the front mounting surface(where the bellhousing will bolt to)to the centerline of the axle. Dave
