There may be others or perhaps a sponsor here carries this one, but TCS Products in Vancouver Canada makes a steel jacketed aluminum drum they call Full Metal Jacket. Here's a link:

The full metal jacket drum is the way to go if you want to replace the ft retainer. It will hold five or six clutches. It is lighter than the steel drum and doesn't contaminate the fluid like the aluminum drum.



correct me if I am wrong - bt cant you buy 2 billet steel drums for the price of one jacketed one?


The steel drum may be a little cheaper than the full metal jacket drum but that is not the point at least to me.

The drum gets stopped in second gear and has to start moving in third gear.
With that in mind the lighter drum is the better choice.



With a jacketed drum priced more them most transmissions & with the steel drum coming in at half the price - and for a budget minded racer, I still believe its the wise choice between looking the other way and being in the game saftely!
Hell if money's no object sure we can just goto a pro trans cant we!



A steel drum from TCS 535.00
The full metal jacket is 592.00
That is a difference of $35.00
You can get a race trans for the price of the full metal jacket drum Say 600.00.
A pro trans is 5500.00
That is a difference of 4900.00
I am still not getting your point.



I think his point is just to keep the going ...

My is the A+A drum is the better billet steel piece , but its $695 .
