Hey Tom any chance you can get a video of your mower running I'm curious about how it sounds.
I second that! make sure its on photobucket though...
A video is a waste of time. It doesn't sound the same as hearing it in person.
Answered perfectly by George!!!
There is no way to replicate the sound and FEEL on any type of video or recording.
Put it this way.......It sounds better than most open pipe Harleys in my area and I will even go as far as saying that it even sounds/feels better than some local V8 racecars at a local dirt track!!!
Tom, out of incredible curiousity, why "no more 350 trans" for you?
Few reasons.........
1) Parts availibility.....NONE!!! These are discontinued...your only spare parts are going to be from other USED transmissions.
2) Modifications needed to make these race worthy surpass my knowledge and equipment needed. Don at G-TEAM does a great job on these....but I'm the type that need to be able to know what needs to be done and have the equipment to do so....Don does a bit of "SPECIAL" work he does not share (Don't blame him...he learned and created business income out of it).
With a 700 series....I can do whatever it may take on my garge, order up new parts from my local power equipment shop....ect
3) Internal gear selection ratio.....The two race gears (2nd & 3rd) their ratios between the two are wide and far. This means a need for a axle sprocket change depending on track size to work with my engines power band. Not a pain to do...but until you get to the track and see the layout/length...I'll be swapping gears around to find the best "fit" for a track. With a 700 series...the ratios are so much closer that a simple shift into another gear is all it takes to dial my engine into the track I'm on!
4) Another concern I have with the 350/400....is the output shaft life. I really liked my tranny....but I'm pushing some real good HP this year and even ask Don....He has seen the shfts fail due to excessive HP.....Now look at the 700's and the power people have been putting to them....self explanitory
The 350 tranny is a real nice tranny. Will hold up great in many racing classes. And if you do decide to run one...YOU MUST contact Don at G-TEAM to perform modification prior to running it.
