Hi i am looking for somw advice on a Gearbox and Axles that would be able to take up to 440 lb-ft (590 Nm)that will be fitted to my Landrover 90 project.
Engine Chevy 6.5 Turbo Diesel 215 BHP and 440 lb-ft
Tires size of 37"
Will be used mainly for road week days and pay and ply site weekends.
At the moment i am running a GMC 6.2 non turbo in my 110 with a R380 manual box and Salisbury Disc braked axles.They handle the Torque ok but the 6.2 only puts out 130 BHP and 240 lb-ft torque.Ok the reson for going for the Chevy engine is that I have been making Biodiesel for 5+ years now and they love the stuff even the 215 BHP 6.5 and can't forget the V8 sound !!
I would love to stay with a Manual gearbox if I can .
Many thanks Simon
