Hemi fred..... Im not knockin the pg!! My good friend runs a low 7 door slammer, of the other race . He just spent 7500 bucks on an ati glide rated for 2500 hp. He runs a 622 reher morrison raptor motor 1300+hp. He 's got a deep pan and an electric cooling pump and can cant make them live. Im not going to make that kinda power i just want toughness and reliabillity. i live in bc canada, the temps are chill in our short race season. If a glide with a cooler and electric pump cant help a glide live what does a guy do? Thats why i want an over built bruno..... Maybe? Im still looking for options but i think the glide is out unless there's a better bang for my buck.

Toby,

You are like me. Over build and then no worries. I also wanted to run a Liberty. That is why I am. I would be running a clutch but the time between rounds if I run brackets is not enough but I have been told I could get a couple passes out of one adjustment.

As for having to tune the clutch, a good clutch tuner can get it on one pass. Seen it done and not on the pro level. We ran a clutch for a long time. trust me, once we hit the set up no one could touch us. But we also ran more power and less tire than everyone one else so tuning the clutch was a little tricky.

I will remember if it spins it is put together right...

Can someone give me a quick education? I always that the Jeffco was an update of the old Jerico's, but looking at the picture above, the shifters indicate to me that its more of a planetary style tranny, similar to a Lenco, although the picture makes it look larger than a CS-2 at least. Guess I've been in the Lenco dark ages too long...lol. Anybody have a web-site or info about them? Thanks.

Thanks for the comeback Cuda. So from what you said, I take it the Jeffco was built to take Lenco internals, correct? Have you had any problems with the reverser on the Jeffco. That's been just about my only real complaint with the Lenco, when they started modifying the original reversers to have a neutral for the Lencodrive or other converter style (Bruno's,Donovans,B&J's)the neutral gate is extremely narrow and really a pain sometimes to get in and out of forward/reverse after burnout using transbrake at higher (1600-1800)idle. The sun gear that engages the reverse slider could be a lot beefier in my opinion, although in my case being a used tranny to start with, it could have been abused before I got it and I just finished it off. Knock on wood, I havn't had any real problems with the new one since fall of '09. I do know most of the monster truck guys have gone to the B&J because they kept tearing up Lenco reversers. The B&J looks physically about the same size as the Jeffco in your pic, just wondering what the Jeffco's are rated at power-wise.

The jeffco is like a cs1, can take about 3000HP
Never had a problem with the reverser or engagement but my car idles at 1000 rpm. I heard of people having trouble at higher rpm's but that was with a clutch not a bruno. when the jeffco doesn't engage at first, I just hit the trans brake again to stop it in a different spot then it slides right in.
