Brilliant driving Jack as per usual , to and beyond the limit to keep the wolves behind. Love the drifting through the chicane section . keep the vids coming.
notice you using O.D. a lot, and not certain but are you using the "Sebring" transmission (my terminology is quite dated) was the "racing" trans available in 1964. (from 1963 to mid 80's had a 58, 2) 59's. a 61 and a 64, actually had better parts books than the local, Santa Barbara, California BMC dealer, and had the opportunity to shake hands with Donald Healey at National Healey club show in Santa Barbara, maybe 1977) apparently am OLD! Question, do you do anything to "beef up" the O.D. ? The last Healey one had, a 59, with a 65 motor and the Sebring trans , was my racer one, (gutted rough body, headwork, actually sent to England for the work, big cam, lightened flywheel, Aeroquipped, dual caliper f/discs, no mufflers, Honda cycle baffles ,removable, blah, blah, blah. It is the one truly missed. was track legal except for fuel cell. And thank you young man for the pleasure to view these videos, Best of luck to you. And one still dislikes 240 Z's
Hi. Yes we do beef up the od somewhat. Uprated pump and spring so a higher pressure to come in stronger but other than that, and using all necessary up graded components in the transmission, it’s of a standard type. The od is very useful on short straights.
@@TheRawles46 Thanks! used to use the O.D. on 2nd gear then out and to 3rd. was like a close ratio trans. Never any problem. Never any desire to put a small block Chevy in any of them. Do know of 2 that had identical body dollys down somewhere behind the front fender tho! (it is nice to see someone beside Louis win!)
Too, would add this, back then (70's) learned that a Positive ground system was %17 less efficient than a Neg ground, Went to small Delco altenator and Mopar regulator ( for gauge, not "idiot" light, and used Neg grd tach from MG -C. Aforementioned car, at 3000 rpm became another car! red line 6300 - 6500 rpm. (was blueprinted and Balanced!) If just could have afforded Webers! (college student on Veterans disability). Still love them big brutes!
