I stripped the gear clean off the reaction shell on my box with a stock 5 litre a beast reaction shell might be a worthwile investment as well.

its bad very bad LOL have killed 2 engine mounts most likely the gearbox mount too and done the front universal its sloppy as hell now bloody torque

im trying not to drive it till the corvette servo arrives and i may pull the front off the box and slide in a new band and fit a 0.500 boost valve while im at it need a shiftkit too when money allows
