So after going through 3 cheapass junkyard transmissions that were 'guranteed' to work (the last of which didn't make 10 miles and I didn't even push 3,000 rpm), I got my money back and have to take it in the rear for a trans rebuild on the credit card. Im so sick of dropping this transmission...
ANYONE know where I can get my grubby little hands on a torsen or quaife for a decent price? Or a Used one even? cheapest i found a quaife was $690 and torsen was $590. I hate to spend this much money when my mustang project is kicking my ass at the same time, but I need one of them to move so I can get to work.
Any input on what would work better for a street drivin car? At that price what the hell is an extra 100 bucks if the quaife is that much better. This car will never be 'raced', but I drive insanly fast, and I am sick of this thing not moving. Also, I was thinking of putting the taller ring gear from the 4 cyl trans in since most of my driving is highway around 85-90 mph. Has anyone done this? Is it a bad idea (breaks) or too much trouble to mess with?
Any help, or heads up on where to go or get parts from would be greatly appreciated.
