Brett some days I hate hearing the truth. Today is one of those days

Hope that helps
I appricate the link.

As for the amount of power they can hold I do believe that would be an issue if I was breaking the things that I mentioned above. The shift forks and syncros aren't breaking because of power.

Dave that makes a good bit of sense on the rpm thing. I never really considered the rpm that I shift at being the issue.


Can anything be done to help it shift at a higher rpm? Or to extend the life of the syncros? Do the g-force t-5s have anything special about the syncros or shift forks compaired to a normal t-5?
