So...
Corey got an update from George at Rockland Standard Gear...
He is building me an entirely new transmission as the old one wasn't worth salvaging... He was both impressed and shocked...
He challenged me to break it... I guess while technically it wasn't broken, since we did go over 200 mph with it, it was on the verge of being eaten by the power we were throwing at it... The input shaft was twisted as we knew before sending it to him, but the main shaft was twisted as well, which is amazing... seeing as no teeth were broken... I'm impressed with the gears.... which, he was unable to get off of the shafts due to the twist....
Updates to follow...
