There was someone here, I think it was B1Cuda out of Pennsylvania, that was having issues with alternative 1st gear ratios out of TranzAct(?). Please correct me if I am mistaken but, someone here did post their troubles.



It was us that had all the problems, I dont recommend 2.28 gears on a high tq engine, we never got more than 60' without breaking something. Ended up going w/ a glide and have been very, very happy...



Chuck from Best Machine ran 2.28 gears in his AM car with a 572" B1-MC motor running 8.50's at 3350 lbs and believe he had good luck with it once the trans was built right.



I remember he was having some issues along the way......I also think he utilized an A&A gear set. A&A/Pro Trans etc will also tell you that the 2.28 gear set is not as strong as a 2.45 and they become vulnerable around 800 ft/lbs of torque.
