Tremec 5spd. arrives


Picture 134.jpgPicture 133.jpgKarbelt Speed shop called that the trans. arrived. Went & picked it up> Only thing I can see thats a "bit" of a problem is that theres no speedo drive adapter in trans,just a rubber plug where its supposed to be,will call them tomorrow to see whats need there. It's also set up for "electronic" speedo as well

You're going to love the overdrive.

The speedo will be no problem. If I remember right it actually uses a Ford gear but they can supply with a gear that will work with your GM speedo cable. To get the right gear they will probably want to know the rear axle gear ratio and the tire diameter. Anyway, it won't be a problem, the tranny is set up to work with a cable style speedometer.

 Usually you get the adaptor c/w cable. You have to tell them your tire  diameter and rear gear

 Totally off topic but man do I like that picture on your avatar of your car. Totally old school. One of my favorites of all time.
