Feels like I'm hitting a dead end. Options on transmission and no decision.
I'm building my H22 turbo Acura CL. S372 .90a.r, Darton wet sleeves, 9:1 ratio CP pistons fully built head... Power 600-700hp
Now transmission I'm a little lost.
Input please. Considered doing custom gears able to withstand power to wheels.
Was considering H2B conversion but cons have me thinking.

 

I would go H2B since there are a lot more options available for the B-Series transmission. With the B-Series you have a plethora of gearing options and manufactures that make aftermarket gearing.

 

Issue with that is that B series tranny will require extensive fabricationg including cutting frame and fitting transmission in bay. Apparently accord frame will not support tranny under normal conditions

 

i would use a f22 trans (longer gears for boost) and get the synchros replaced with aftermarket ones..

 

Oh ok gotcha! We have built several H22 trans that have held up to the power levels but required frequent teardown and inspections to keep it together. Another option is going with an M-Factory Pro Series gearset. Here are the ratios that are currently available:
2.786 1st, 1.900 2nd, 1.430 3rd & 1.100 4th
Do some math and see if that will work with your setup.

 

Pro series won't hold 700. Pm me your number. I've got some info for you. There's a new player coming out on the block for gearsets... but in the heavy Cl.. if it hooks at all... you'll be breaking 2 and 4s anywhere north of 380 tq on varying loads in an oem tranny. They'll last a lil while.. but not long. At 600 making big h tq. Maybe a few hits.. probably not though

 

f22!!!
