Chrissock, I think I'm on your page? Do what you can with what you got and skip the extra costs associated with getting a newly well built trans, drive prop shortening, etc....
Even though there is power to be found in a different trans and maybe even a rear, the list goes on and on about what could be done. Of course, the Internet spending your money and the actual reality are two vastly different pockets.
Build on brother! Build on!
