The parts list I have so far includes : bolt in sprag , billet drum, billet rear servo ,reinforced intermediate strut , and thick lug pump gears. Seems to be several choices available for each part. I'm wondering whos' parts, you experts ,would choose and why. BTW this build will have a LBA transbrake, havent decided which one yet. Thanks Wade

I am in the process of pulling my trans AND engine,,,I know what happened to the engine,,not sure about transmission yet. I will be watching this as I am going to have to build alittle better trans myself. If you like drag racing, support your local track.

They're also sponsors here. yes, both TCS & A&A are good to deal with, only problem with A&A was they supplied a zillion religous stickers with their parts they sent me. could be worse i suppose. i have the TCS rollerised kit in my current trans, all good stuff.

Together with the aluminum or steel (not cast factory) front drum, the low band apply valve body, and transmission shield, you have taken the right precautions. 7359978-Coan_Super_Sprag.jpg (63 downloads)
