dwdirks Posted September 4, 2006 Share Posted September 4, 2006 Hi, I just bought a 1/6 scale Ford SOHC drag engine and would like to install it in a 1/8 scale 'Big T'. Should make a great looking dragster. But, where do I find an appropriate transmission? Or, could I modify a 'Big T' tranny to look like a transmission that would fit behind the SOHC? Any ideas and advice will be greatly appreciated. D Dirks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTmike400 Posted September 4, 2006 Share Posted September 4, 2006 The 1/6 motor is going to be WAY too big for the 1/8 Big T. Its about 30% bigger than it should be. No 1/6 scale trannies exist, you will have to build one from scratch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwdirks Posted September 4, 2006 Author Share Posted September 4, 2006 Thanks Mike for your reply about the 1/6 motor and transmission. Yes, it will be too big for a 1/8 Big T but it may make a good cartoon car. We'll see if I ever get around to scratching a tranny for the motor.
