| Re: shifting? If you use the trotle to get it in gear it is verry hard for the transmisjon. use a engine kill switch to shot of the engin wile shifting. mutsh better for the gearbox. and mutch faster. |

| Re: shifting? If you don't want to go with a full blown airshifter, try finding a Dale's powershifter or equivalent. Like Power of Dreams said, it will kill your engine for a split second when you pull up on shift lever. |
