verifying 6th gear?

[stothew]

bought a trans and trying to verify if 6th gear is .50 as i see it one revolution of the input should indicate 2 rotations on the output, correct?

What transmission is that? What kind of options as far as ratio's go.

 

[stothew]

sorry, that is a t56. 6th gear options are .50 and .63

 

[stothew]

i believe it is wrong cause if it where .50 after reaching just one rotation on the input i would have gone 2 in the rear. but in the video i clearly have to go beyond 1 input turn to equal 2 on the output

I assume its used? You will have to take it apart and get the gear inspected itself.

Link on the T56.

yes, used.

2 revolutions of the input should yield 1 revolution of the output.

2 revolutions of the input should yield 1 revolution of the output.

Not in overdrive.

 

[UnleashedBeast]

2 revolutions of the input should yield 1 revolution of the output.

Don't you mean that the other way around.

1 input revolution = 2 output revolutions if 6th gear was .5 to 1

Yep, I'm totally backwards.
