most of my pics are 10mb+ so i cant upload to discord without compressing them and destroying the quality
niggas really out here posting cars but not the model name
So i have a custom transmission concept.... 5 speed with an external overdrive, you then essentially have a double overdrive transmission. If it's gonna be a column shifter it should be like the dog leg 5 on the floor transmissions with reverse over first, this is ideal for road racing too. if 5th gear is 0.71:1 ratio then the external overdrive gear ratio should be 0.59 to 0.62. You get two advantages with this configuration, 1. you can split all 5 gears in overdrive with 5-Over being the fastest ratio and essentially an Overdrive within Overdrive, 2. it also means less wear and tear on the engine than a conventional 5 speed. The only disadvantage is the fact it may not be as fast as a 6 speed but its pretty damn close.
is this a copypasta
forget three on the tree or four on the floor.... lets go five on the drive
i'm posting this in several servers to get opinions or technical information on such a concept
any input is appreciated
i have a buddy whom is hotrodding an olds 88 from 1956
he wants to modify the manual transmission in it from a 3 speed column shifter to a 5 speed column shifter
hes placing a 394 1961 Sky Rocket V8 into it
he's got a guy who can build custom transmissions so he's asking around for more information, i told him about this idea of mine and he asked me for more info on how such a thing could work in a 56 oldsmobile 88
no pop up lights 🤢
@Indigo Lucifer how is he asking you how it would work. You can put any engine and trans in any car. It's just a metal shell

Have some rares, lads.
Asking for a friend, should he have a mid life crisis at 19 and get a C3 Corvette and modify it to race spec and swap in a BB 427 and resell it for profit
yes
if you have a shop
I don't know if I have ever actually seen a race C3, they may or may not suck as a platform compared to later more popular platforms (like a C5)
c3 is trash unless it has a big block and a turbo 400.
I asked him his plan and he said he was gonna get a 427 big block and throw on some aluminum rectangle port heads and an 1000CFM Holley with a full coilover conversion.
