A833 to R5P7 - 11/15/11 02:48 AM
This question is more geared toward P5P7 Duster: What is involved to adapt the A833 to the R5P7 engine? How much does your kit cost? What bell housing do you use and are there any mods to the trans needed to make it work? Thanks for your help!

Stock- NO
Highly modified (pro shifted and face plated, Hurst Vgate)- Yes but not consistent, about 25% of the time it wouldn't go in gear. I was told if I spent another 1500-2000 on a better clutch combo I could.. But I didn't want to spend that and find out I had the same problem.

I'm shifting at 8000 rpm and the only shift I have trouble with is 1-2 shift, but they are now making a face plated sec gear so that is next for me.

Wow, I had no idea that even 8000rpm was possible. Pretty cool...
