Cleaning out the garage. I have a 8:1 gearbox out of my 2000 that I no longer have use for. Swapped with a 12:1 and sold the car. Free + shipping cost if anyone can use it. ---

If we can make into a 6/1. Can it be done? 6/1 9000 rpm that would be nuts. 3 digit speeds eek. I got them. ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/electricforum/original/2X/5/5571ed567bee1f2126493d12c6130b314586b7e1.jpeg) ---

I’ll donate the gearbox and pay for shipping if this is what’s going to happen! I’ll watch from the sidelines…3 digits on a gem sounds terrifying… obviously something I’d love to see ---

Gabe has my new 6:1 from Rodney. Not cheap (Rodney time and parts) but if he doesn’t have time, he can pass it on for testing. I think Gabe may have modded it for a new Gem though. @djgabriel2004 Needs pmac IMO and that will limit speed to 5k rpm. ---

Sounds like @Old_Houseboater will take one of the 8.91:1 gears. Trying to see what he’ll charge to convert the other to 6:1. Maybe we’ll get some type of credit for the donated 8.91:1 🙂 And isn’t there an extra pmac in Kansas City?? ---

Who needs George? I say Road trip! Many moons ago a buddy of mine worked as a paramedic and the company needed some new rolling stock. He was paid to fly out to Cleveland to pick up a brand new rig and drive it back. He had a few of us come along to assist (for free). That was a fun trip. ---

I will neither confirm nor deny that code 3 may have been “tested” on the trip back. The weird thing was when approaching some of the toll booths the gate would go up, green light would show, and we would get waved through without stopping.
