Whenever you start to spin it’s two feet in. I’ve been in a few
situations where other drivers have tried to save a spin by not
following this advice and they always come rolling across the
track backwards following an unpredictable path usually collecting
a few unsuspecting racers along the way. Always go two feet in. <br>

Speaking of spinning the OD backwards, which it won’t do, what
happens if you spin the car while overdrive is engaged?
Probably my biggest concern for running one of these in a race
car... I was thinking I’d use it on track and maybe
autocross, but I think that is ill advised now that I bring up
that question. Has anyone ever spun and rolled backwards,
with OD engaged?

I was able to test my overdrive by chucking a 1/2”
electric drill on the input shaft and turning the
whole transmission. (Make sure to spin the right
direction!). Pretty sure I used 4th gear. I was
able to determine that my OD pressure is at 350
psi, so I’ll have to shim the spring I guess.

<div>Secondary question; the OD seemed to stick on
me, but I did not have a load on the output
flange, due to being on the bench; I’m assuming
this might be an issue? Or would a load coax
the OD to releasing as appropriate?</div>

<div>Quick Question</div>
<div>A friend of mine started
testing his A-Type
Overdrives by back spinning
the output flange (to the
prop shaft) with a pulley
and electric motor.</div>
<div>I've seen this done by
spinning the
transmission INPUT shaft
with a pulley and electric
motor but not from the rear.</div>
<div>Any chance of damaging
the overdrive since the
overrunning clutch is only
going to spin in the one
direction, can it lock up
the overdrive?</div>
<div>Thanks in advance</div>
