Cool. Not sure that MT Streets will be too good at QR!

Why spend so much on rods and so little on what keeps them in the block?

Dump the digi or you might generate some more photos of pistons like that.

Its not really the PAR Gear ,, but more to do with the casing and size of bearings holding up with the extra torque is put through it ,, Do a search of fordlaser.com

Nice work mate. My fwd mazda v8 killer has the same shit ass G series box as well.

Any info on the Toyota box with adapter plate setup, Cameron_datto. Ive had a search and cant find without registering. My thoughts were always that mating a toyota box would be the best and strongest option, but that it was to hard too accomplish.

3rd gear it self is physically tiny and piss weak, that is in addition to the case flex problems.
