Fitting an overdrive to your
classic car gives immediate benefits in terms of reduced engine
& transmission wear and enhances the pleasure of driving
For a given engine speed the
Overdrive will, theoretically, give an extra 28% road speed.
So that:-
| Direct drive |
3000 rpm |
60 mph |
| Overdrive |
3000 rpm |
77 mph |
While many of these older cars have the power and torque to do
this, it is very important to consider beforehand how you are
going to get rid of this extra speed in a hurry when you need
to!
Probably of more interest is
that for a given road speed, the Overdrive will drop the engine
revs by 22%, so that:-
| Direct drive |
60 mph |
3000 rpm |
| Overdrive |
60 mph |
2350 rpm |
Overdrives can be fitted to many other vehicles. Our policy is
to tailor make the overdrive to fit your car, not to try and
make your car fit our overdrive.
