if these Richmond trannys like the RPM to shift. My goals to achieve this would include
"perfect" bellhousing alignment and clutch adjustment.
And, evidently, not using a synthetic fluid.


As I just posted, you can slick shift the Richmond just like a Chrysler box. They don’t like to shift at higher RPM’s due to clutch disc weight and too many teeth on the gears, sliders and syncros. So slick shift it like a Chrysler box and do the 2,3 and 4 syncros too. Then put it back together like it’s stock and drive it.


Just because you think it won't make it true. Horsepower is KING. To dispute this is stupid. C. Alston
