[QUOTE="ANGREY, post: 16618984, member: 188865"] No OEM trans will "hold" that. The 3160 survives well primarily based upon the inability to really get any great traction on a 19" wheel. Basically you'll roll the tires over long before you break the drivetrain. I'd be more skeptical about "drop in" claims for rotating components. I don't see how they could ever possibly claim that, it's frankly irresponsible, especially on the voodoo. I'm no engine builder, but unless they can guarantee that the piston, wrist pin and the entire assembly will weigh EXACTLY what the OEM weighs (for each individual rod/piston) then a rebalancing of the crank journals would almost certainly be smart, if not required. I suppose you could get them all laid out and weighed and try to match them up as best as possible, but even the slightest imbalance at 8250+ is no bueno. [/QUOTE]
