What gearbox ?


Recommended Posts

Jay Leno has a couple of cars with huge engines (aircraft size). They both use Allison transmissions, as used in Greyhound busses. What does an Allison transmission look like? Heck if I know. I'd guess it's the same for most of us. Use a trans from a big rig kit.

Where are you getting a big Allison engine? FYI- Airfix makes a 1/24 P-51 with a Rolls-Royce Merlin that is not bad at all. You could get a couple of turbos off a larger scale kit and make an induction system like on pulling tractors or old hydroplanes.
