Default racing tranny

hey all

i am new to the boards and me and my older brother are building up a drag honda with my dad...and i was wondering who sells some transmissions....the motor is right around 600hp so if someone could lemme know of a company or website that i could go to to find a good tranny i would appreciate it. ohh and also would we need to upgrade anything else to handle the HP?


thanks alot
Drew

with that much hp to the ground i'd start looking at new axles as well. as for trannys, not too many companys make aftermarket trannys for hondas. unless you want a full custom setup which means a lot more $$$, you'll have to stick with reinforcing a stock tranny.


oh and welcome. :wavey:

Well first of all what engine are u using? You are going to have to go with stronger half shafts. I wouldn't recommend building a drag car yourself if your dont know what you are doing.

You can get your tranny internals cryo-treated which should help beef them up, and then you could run a drag spool, since it'll be a drag-only car, and then run some beefier axles like the Driveshaft Shop ones.

Don't forget to get some beefy drive hubs or cryo treat your current ones too.

Also, as reinforcement, I've heard nothing but good things about Driveshaft Shop, both about their products and their customer service.

I think some of their axles come with new hubs too

How much is a set of Top Sirloin axles from the Drive Shaft shop. Say for around 200 wheel horsepower?
