Re: Esprit V8
Thats absolutly utterly insane!
Straight cut gears make a lot of noise at 8,000rpm though.

Re: Esprit V8
I want that tranny in my Camaro!!
It would probably be a subtle whine for the regular 2200rpm shifts for daily driving, and whoever you're racing would thing you have about 12 KB blowers under your hood
