I think it is gauged for the American class 10/12 cars. Limited horse powered 1650 cars perhaps.
I would also like to know...surely they would build it for more horsepower than 1650. I figured it might suit prolite at least? Maybe the cheaper price relates to non-sequential and 4 speed...rather than horsepower?
im spewing big time as i called ALBINS in nov and asked them if they were doing such a box , as someone at the gas dash said he heard they were , and they said they weren't !!!!!!!!!!!
well i recon my new box looks better , well thats what im telling myself any way !

it's not the speed of life that scares me, it's the sudden stop at the end ,
The HV-1 has a 2ltr gear set and the ring and pinion out of the AGB10 you would think it should handle 200hp at the wheels ???? it supose to be avaible soon in 5 speed
Febuary issue of dirt sports mag has an article on the HV-1 trans 99% of my questions are answered Nothing about its limits so i guess the approx 200 hp will have to do
im wanting to know who has one and what they are like? my fater bought one for our southern cross and wont get to use it till late this year any tips about them?
From what I have heard, even though the components are made in aussie, they are manafactured for weddle and assembled in USA, Albins then imports them complete from weddle if someone wants one. I guess there would be some sort of business agreement involved? Even though in USA they are being used in some high HP situations, Albins suggested that under 'aussie racing' conditions they would be more suited to super 1650 and sportsman class. Prolite is yet to be tested, but I am looking forward to the outcome!
Carl, Ron is in Kempsey or you can go to Albins direct, would probably use Ron though because he knows all the ratios and helped us work the ones out for our gearboxes. Albins advertise the HV-1s for $9000 plus gst then you'll need the adapter for the shifter which i think was about $422 plus gst, would highly recommend these boxes after driving my old car at milbrodale with a V6 powering it
