Problem is Paul, it's a 4 speed with pistol grip shifter. Don't really want to modify it but it may be the only way.

sorry mate

I just thought that it was a 727

goodnight

I do have a switch for a four speed but it comes with a knob as well

ok if you had a ball but Bananarama! if you have a pistol grip

Floor switch is the only way to go. They usually supply a dipped/main beam type floor switch with the overdrive.

They do when it's an auto, but they supply a latching push button switch for a manual.

Gonna check this again tomorrow, think it was about 2700 rpm at 70. Gears are 3.91. I checked the speedo with the sat nav and it's reading 1mph low which is good enough.

All I want to do is break into the elevens, for now anyway.

Lets see what it does next year on street tyres and go from there.

You'll be fine with the gay 3;23s , just think yerself lucky you don't have to crank the sounds up when doin 80 mph @ 4500rpm , or 130 mph @ 7000 rpm.
