Jericho trans question
Can one of these trans used in a stocker be used on the street? Hemi 18 spline trans are $2000 and up. That much into a trans might as well step up to a better one.

Re: Jericho trans question
Can be used on the street, just exercise "double clutch'' technique on up/downshifting to extend trans. life. Full throttle shifts, same as on track. Tony

Re: Jericho trans question
You won’t have any problem shifting that transmission on the street. It is face tooth design and you won’t need to use the clutch. Just ease off the throttle and move the shifter smoothly and quick. The straight cut gears will be noisy and down shifting should not be done. It will wear pretty fast.

Agree ! It is all technique and practice. That said it is a non-synchro box so there will be times in traffic where you just have to slam a gear and go. People will look at you like something just fell out the bottom but it's part of the tradeoff for a strong powershifting box. |

Re: Jericho trans question
I'd be looking for a Jerico WC (Winston Cup) version that has the road race sliders. Never tried one but they are designed to down shift. DR-4's don't like downshifting although on occasion I can get mine into a lower gear without drama. The gear noise will likely make you crazy and yes, they sound like parts are falling out.
