This winter's project. A transmission for the 302 engine

[gbritnell]

I would be happy to download the drawings to the files section. I never gave it much thought as I didn't figure there would be that many other 'nuts' out there that would want to tackle such a project.

Perhaps - but like me they might want to print them out and drool all over them.

To dream them impossible dream...........ta da...

I agree it would be more to drool over however I am in the process of building a model drilling rig for my father as a retirement gift and will need to design some sort of transmission.

On a real rig they use a 6 speed diesel transmission similer to a large trucks and I think the t-5 would be perfect in its simplicity since I already know how they work on cars.

I dont need the (Beautifully machined) case or anything. Just the measurement; gear info, distance between centers ecetera would be so useful to me and im sure others. Who has not thought at one time how useful/neat a gearbox would be behind their model engines.

Suprised no one else has asked! Definitly post when you upload them to the downloads section. Thanks.

George,

Did you ever mate this to the 302 with a clutch? i looked through your posted threads but did find it.

if so, please point me in that direction.
