Waaaaay toooo late.

Back-in-the-day, my engine stayed below 3000 rpms AND the transmission (which consisted of a idler pulley, that when manually tightened up against the belt between the pulley on the driveshaft and the pulley on the drive axle) would make the car go faster .....or less fast. Did ya get all of that .....??

I started with a auto transmission (called a centrifugal clutch) and converted it a manual transmission (described above) ........because ......

A MANUAL TRANSMISSION WAS MORE MANLY in my roadster .....
