- While I have done a large number of overdrives, mostly A-Types I have to admit not too many for racing purposes. It is said that the A-Type does a better job for the race cars because it has an accum

- You too, huh? Just to expand a bit, make sure there is enough travel before coil bind to fully uncover the relief hole (or holes). The pressure was fine on the bench ... Randall ____________________

- It is amazing as to how much pressure that little pump in the A-type can generate..... I wound out an 800 lb gauge before I could shut it down!! PS. It will also BEND parts in the overdrive if it doe

- Not necessarily. Over Drive Spares in the UK produces a competition spring for the A-Type which will get you in the 450 lb. range. Unless you are having slippage issues there is no need for more pres
