Message	I’m trying to design a 8-speed transmission with titanium gears. Custom case of course and the best part is 3 overdrive gears!!!! Yea! I don’t know what 1st – 4th ratios will be but I’m thinking of 5th - 1:1 6th - 0.75 7th - 0.60 8th - 0.45. man with gearing like that your talking hell of top end speed! Or 7 speed with the 8th linkage the reverse gear? I don’t know but I’m working on this project with a few transmission specialists forged aluminum case with titanium gears is my plan. If I get this done and it works out like I hope it does im going to copyright the tranny and sell the only to fellow TT.net members! So only us Zer’s can have them!! LOL Oh by the way, I don't want to hear any bullshit like (can’t be done or impossible) Because if you got the money or the equipment to do it, anything’s possible! I already know that the case is going to be longer so it will have to be accompanied with a custom drive shaft too. and maybe a little body frame moding. matt
