Just wondering if there is anyone on these forums that has tried xtrac transmissions, and if they have had any shortcomings. I would imagine they are all they are made out to be given the high price tag. Im really looking for a transmission i can beat the sh it out of and not have any problems.
thanks

 

probably a little overkill for a dd

 

its for my all motor car
on methanol

 

Just because it is a strong transmission, doesn't mean you can beat the crap out of it. Used improperly, the transmission will still break.

 

with an all motor car, why not look into the liberty gearset and billlet bell housing? cheaper and

 

Or even a quaife gear set as well

 

i really appreciate the input but has anyone actually tried the product

 

Kenny tran has ran a xtrac for 3 yrs now, bothwell also runs one

 

Gary G had a Xtrc in the Red EG and loved it, cost is big but it is strong from what we hear. We thought so and got one for our HotRod build - the part looks very nice and great quaility.

 

I dont think I've ever heard of a xtrac breaking. They are really bad ***...

I remember seeing that Brian J. broke gears in his transmission, but it was because the shift cut was not set for him. I guess once that was fixed, it worked well...

 

just to clarify, these can only be used in the pro class, right?

 

To run that car in NHRA All Motor let say with anything bigger than 2.4 liters you would have to weigh 1875. That trans is a 150 lb. penalty.
