If you do a lot of other mods the 2 speed will work but its not really that effeciant...........you will have to go with the 13 / 18 bell for sure

Direct drive is a lot better than the 2 speed if you have the right engine

I looked for over a year trying to find someone who would do chrome on plastic...........there is not many out there and the cheapest I found was in Washington State..........there is no way that it is cost effective till you order over a thousand parts. Just to get down to retail prices we get from china, the minimum is 5000 parts............so if you find someone good and cheap let me know please

chrome never seems to last on plastic anyways, always chips off and dulls down.

Draino out of 1 gallon of water make 25% of it the old style draino,(25 / 75) soak it and watch for the paint to bubble, after it bubbles for 20 or 30 seconds rinse it off real well. Repeat until the paint is gone and polish the heck out of it Ya might wear rubber gloves and be careful not to splash it everywhere
