833 strength

hi, the 833 will take the power you have. don't use a center force clutch, you'll break parts. I'd use a mcloed or ram clutch. the mcloed makes a clutch that doesn't kill parts. use a synthetic lube in trans. it 's worth the extra $$.
you can power shift an 833.

Don't use synthetic gear oil. I though I would give my A833 a treat back several years ago and put Mobil 1 75W-90 gear synthetic gear oil in it. It would grind gears on any up shift or down shift. After a trip around the block with a grind on ever shift I drained it and put ATF back in it and it was back to normal. The synthetic gears oils are too slippery for the syncros to work properly.

I now use Penzoil Syncromesh Manual Tranny fluid. Shifts better than ATF and is almost as quite as regular gear oil.

I have been considering trying one of the manual tranny specific synthetic fluids from Redline or Royal Purple but haven't wanted to spend the money yet.
