Some updates:
Driver technique does play a role
We try to protect against it best we can!
All the syncros are still intact.
The inside of the mid case has witness marks where the gear teeth sprayed against one side.
Tires: We run Dunlop slicks - 265's
LSD: Not sure exactly how tight set - 80% is a number I remember??
Track situation: The back straight at Mosport is uphill coming from a hairpin in 3rd gear and up through the gears to a downshift to 4th and then to 3rd through the Esses. The front Straight is flat again starting in 3rd. The rest of the track is 4th, 5th - lots of elevation changes including in turns.
So if 3rd gear is the weakest - what shall we use for 3rd gear?
Is stock out of the question?
Can Guard Help?
Gary Fairbanks?
Where to find a solution?
There were some postings of how to strengthen the 915.
Anyone have a link or remember the details?
Don't want to keep rebuilding - wanna put in the right parts and make as bullet proof as possible - oh and work on driver technique too!
