It's been welded before, so additional welding is not looking promising. Like most A type units, it leaks like a sieve and this one seems to only intermittently engage. Therefore, I'm considering going to a 5-speed set up. Any experience with either the HVDA (Toyota based) or the Vitesse (Miata based) units? I'm a fan of originality, but I'm also tired of fighting the fun of O/D units and the fact that getting one properly rebuilt in the US seems to be very difficult.</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">Thanks!</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">Jake Jacobsen</div></div><div><0730231557.jpg></div><div><0730231558.jpg></div><span>_______________________________________________</span><br><span>fot@autox.team.net</span><br><span></span><br><span>http://www.fot-racing.com</span><br><span></span><br><span>Donate: http://www.team.net/donate.html</span><br><span>Archive: http://autox.team.net/archive http://www.team.net/pipermail/fot</span><br><span>Unsubscribe/Manage: http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/fot/chasgee22@gmail.com</span><br><span></span><br><span></span><br></div></blockquote></div></body></html>
