That's the idea Dave.But i am thinking out of the box a little(in ZS forums,nowt new in what I am doing)No headline KV6 figures here,rather than pay £ for ponies I'm paying to get the ponies I have to the tarmac.
Different I guess,but I'm excited if nobody else is lol.
The fly I had designed has gone well with the PPL that have used it(still surprised more haven't though)

The final drive will change all gearing,it will ruin a pod run lol(extra gear change,not bothered)but over all pace will be better
Just popped the gearing into the gearboxman calculator,it rounds the gearing off & relies on me putting them in after a few bevvies,but this is the result

4.2 final drive

3.9 final drive

Top speed should in theory stay the same,power v resistance.The difference will be the revs it is achieved at.(feel free to correct me Matt)

Nice one Andy, I have a few mods I would like and they are ATB, 4 pots and coilovers but I cannot afford any of those at present so I have to make do with what I have got. I've run out of gold to 'weigh in' :laugh:

[shroonie29]

Managed to get a new ZS 120 box (£225,very reasonable compared to list price of FD)as a doner for the 4.2 & a few other useful internal parts.
Happy to report that Matt has received this & opened it & all was as stated

I'm down to my last few mods on the wish list, this being one, 4 pots and coilovers will do me fine but all are pricey! Work in progress it shall be. I'll need to be getting some private work sorted ;)
