A833 O/D gears in an A833 1:1 ?

Dave,

Don't worry about using an aluminum extension housing with a cast iron case. Detroit did that for years with no problem. The early T-10's (and some hi-po Super T-10's) and Fords had millions out there, no problem. The more I think on it, I'm sure it was fluid level that killed them. MOPAR had a reputation of low maintenance vehicles. Just my thoughts.

Low fluid level VS aluminum = murder. Yeah, it's likely suspect and I'll bet the plugs leaked on the aluminum cases.

Good to know about the Super 10's and A833, I have seen the Borg Warner. I think maybe as long as I have a good, urethane engine mount and a rubber or urethane tail, it should be fine.

I've seen a few cracked bells on autos from hard trans brake launches, but most of the ones I saw were on some kind of ludicrous solid mount.
