C4 low gears

Fred Elsass · 07-28-2019, 09:05 AM

Where can one purchase a 2.82 or lower transmission low gear for a C4?

Also who can build a killer 74 2bbl stocker engine?

You can get a 2.20/1.45/1.1 from Broader Performance, but it's like a ProMod trans.

Great C4 stuff from them.

Pro Trans is your best bet !!

Jim Paquet makes them from 2.20 low to 2.92 low gear sets. He does sell direct, but he also sells to other trans builders, complete drive shell, planetary set with torrington bearing. Drop in and go.
Been using his stuff since 1987, Stock and SuperStock foot brake and trans brake and have never broken one or had any issues.

PM me for contact info, he’s moved from Michigan to Crystal River, Florida.

RJ nice to hear from you. I remember when you had a go around with the NHRA Hitler on the Motorcycle who terrorized you at the scales, I believe that it was in Dallas with your 66.

Do not know how to PM. Please send info to LSA4642@sbcglobal.net.

Thanks

Good luck getting anything out of them right now. They moved to Texas and haven’t restocked many parts yet. You don’t need a pro trans for a 2bbl car. Just saying

I have a 2.90 low gear in my trans from Mike Graham from Virginia Speed Race cars. The trans has been freshened a couple time and the gear set still looks good with over 400 runs on them. I actually contacted Mike recently before Ed Horensky took my trans apart to see if he had parts if I needed it, and he said what he didnt have he would make. When Ed took it apart, it still looked good. If you need contact info, pm me.
