snowprophet1 Posted September 14, 2004 Report Posted September 14, 2004 Well, I am re-porting my 350 right now for drag only on alky. For you guys (or gals) who have actually ran an RZ350 tranny, do you recommend running the RZ tranny for asphalt, or would a banshee tranny w/2-4 override be better? I have both sitting in the garage, and will probably try w/stock tranny as is first, but then put one of the others in. If the RZ is prefered, maybe I'd make that into and override also, but don't know if a 1-4 is better than a 2-4 if I start always in first gear? Thanks for your experienced info!!!!! Quote
bkabina Posted September 14, 2004 Report Posted September 14, 2004 The RZ tranny is geared a little better for asphalt,but second and third gear start to get stress cracks,sometimes after only about 40 passes.The banshee tranny will definately hold up better.If you start in first all the time go with the 1-4 over ride.

big_block_banshee Posted September 14, 2004 Report Posted September 14, 2004 if ur gonnna run asphalt i highly recomend that u run a 1-5 intstead of a 1-4. Quote
snowprophet1 Posted September 15, 2004 Author Report Posted September 15, 2004 If I try and convert my 2-4 override into a 1-5, will I not have a sixth gear, or is that just how some people just make them? Otherwise I will try to make my 2-4 into a 1-4. Thanks! Quote
bkabina Posted September 15, 2004 Report Posted September 15, 2004 I don't have sixth gear in my 1-5.It was cut by Rudy.Some people do have all the gears,I don't know if Rudy can do it that way or not.Maybe give him a call (760)244-8834.He will give you more info on the Rz tranny too. Quote
big_block_banshee Posted September 15, 2004 Report Posted September 15, 2004 unless u are runnig the 1/4th u dont need 6th gear anyway Quote
snowprophet1 Posted September 15, 2004 Author Report Posted September 15, 2004 I'll still be running the 1/4, so I better keep the 6th. Gearing/tire combo might be a little tough otherwise! Quote
a&sbanshee Posted September 16, 2004 Report Posted September 16, 2004 whatever u do dont run a 1-6 override they are popular among alot of drag racers that run pavement but they do not hold up really well at all. if your going to run 1/4 still i would go with a 1-4 override and youll just have to manual shift into 5th and 6th gear dan hull runs the same set up on his turbo bike when he runs it on ashphalt and the only complaint he has with it was he said it was a lil hard to move ya hands to shit into 6th but u should be ok Quote
fast frankie Posted September 17, 2004 Report Posted September 17, 2004 I love my 1-6 by wicked atv the only thing is you got to pull it to the line and pull it back to your truck but you cannot beat an override it is a world of a difference Quote
