Well I dont know about most of you but Im a big manual transmition guy. The problem with that is (besides being hard to do)I dont want to hook up a small car transmition to a 25 kholer. I was thinking maybe a VW or maybe one of those Mercedes Diesles. The engine itself isnt a big problem, the steering is. I dont think a T20 is built to take the power of something that powerful. Has anyone ever tried or even heard of using motorcycle clutches or small car clutches? HOw about some kind diferential set up? Any Input is nice

SO there is no transmition it just uses the T20s reduction?

the reduction is in the chains and sprokets, the transmition is for stearing and forward & reverse

Oh ok that makes sense. I meant transmition in the sense of a 4 speed volkwagen tranny or something like that. I got 3 or 4 Dodge and Ford 3 speed transmition in the garage that I was thinkning about using.
