You can put an LS 4.266 final in it (doing that will require an ls/b16 differential also), or get a new fd. Albins has a 4.1 fd that will work with the oem gearset.

 

Yes i think you would love the faceplating i was in the same boat as you are in two years a go and i faceplated the first of this year and wish i would have done it years ago but i dont make a lot of power. But i have saved a lot of money doing it and i love the way it shifts i can flat shift it with no problem at all at 10500. Just looked at the gear set and it looks great. First time i pulled it out all year and i have a lot of hits on it like 70+. I also street drive it is a little getting use to tho on the street.

 

can you PM me the price of the Albins 4.1 FD shipped to 11413? I used the 4.266 of the LS, it was a littel beter but still reach 1320 mark riding the limiter (10300 rpm).

 

James, our DSS spool was machined wrong too. It was .120" longer between the bearing. I had to use the thinner 18mm bearings just to get it in the case Then machined the inner cv cup to get it on.

I feel the same as you when it comes to aftermarket high end parts. Fitment definently lacks and seems to be an industry standard. Its sad really.

This thread makes me smile. Alot of broken parts are due to the consumer and the mfg gets the blame. I've seen stock **** survive 800hp and the aftermarket stuff break on 200hp. Driving style and other things play a large role on broken parts. I find it funny how people complain about the price of these transmissions. Go home and add up all the money spent to make 1000hp+. $6-7K for the part that lets you use it seems about right.

I feel like I'm in a diesel forum! "I make 1500ftlbs and my stock tranny took a ****! WTF!"

Be realistic

 

Lol.

 

LMAO

 

Ours was in a completely different area. The splines inside were left too far out to the edge, so we couldn't get our intermediate bar all the way in, it stopped ~1/4'' away. We had to cut the splines farther back, which only left ~1/4'' of spline left on that side of the spool. And there seems to be some misalignment between the splines on the 2 sides because it is extremely tough to get the bar to push through, have to use an air hammer to get it in unlike our last DSS spool. It's going back to them now that we have the car apart again for the winter re-vamp, v2.0 lol

You guys gonna go Outlaw over the winter or what?

 

We'll see

 

I just purchased a 1-4 syncro set from Mfactory and cant wait to try it out. It gets real old spitting out gears on a stock h22 m2a4 trans. Im going to run their set and carbon syncros with a cuff for 5th as recommended by Steve. I will say this that Mfactory has EXCELLENT cust service. Once i make it back to the track I will be sure to post up how well they are doing.

 

Mitch has the Mfactory sYnced STRAIGHCUT set in his h22 Lude for about a month or two now. Its very quiet. WOrking great at 620WHP and BEATEN to ****

Weve both run carbon syncros, and they dont work for either of us as well as OEM syncros. Both of us went back to them (OEM). The carbon (not going to get into MFG) were coming apart - debonding from the brass ring as its not a coating, its an actual insert.

Were thinking it was his error, but mine did it too. The MFG was TOTTALLY cool and standup. Hooked us up with brand new Carbon and OEM style. I put the OEMs back in and once again flawless flat foot shifting at 9K.

 

FYI, We just temporarily slashed the Albins sets pricing for those of you that are asking about pricing. Can't complain about that.

Very nice.

 

Can't beat that deal, i'd be all over the Albins if I was in the market for a dogbox!

 

agreed!!! i guess im gonna start saving now

 

albins dog box gear set looks very convincing

 

do they make a 4.0 final drive and is their a price difference?

 

Don't forget to add $1150 for the fd to the price.

 

PM'd.

FD is seperate for the synchro sets, but it is included in the 1-4 drag dogbox price. You can use oem fd's if you want, they are compatible but not recommended for high power apps.

 

Damn, wish i had a job. James, you got a lay-away program?

 

That is a good deal!

 

Yeah lay away please lol jk. I will definitely get one if I have the cash flow. It sure is look really good and seem to hold up well.

 

i need easy pay. non baller right here.
