  • In this video we start the process of building a home built race stick shock transmission. We take a stock manual transmission and modify it to make it more efficient to bang shift. In this video I explain what it is and start the process. #stickshift #vintageracecars #oldschool #frizzellracing #homebuilt #builtnotbought

    Good video Bobby!...the old school racers weren't afraid to try anything that might give them an advantage... some things worked and some didn't, but that's what it's all about...I'll be waiting for part 2!

      Absolutely. A lot of the stuff that is just common place now was all because some racer somehow figured it out and started winning with it. Thank you for watching

      @@bandcshow11d6 it’s weird what people seem to be interested in on UA-cam. I thought this would be a home run video but it seems like it landed kinda flat. But I will most likely do a second part when I get caught up anyway

    When I was in high school we did that to top loaders. We called them crash box four speeds. Only used the clutch to access reverse and first from a stop. The rest of the time it was full throttle shifts with no clutch. The top loader was a very good tranny at the time when coupled to the ford nine inch differential. The ford nine inch is a piece of cake to set up. Easily done by anyone.

      @@fatherguidosarduchi5204 I agree it use to be a common thing, personally what I think kinda made it fade away is tire technology combined with glue technology. As tires and glues have gotten better the stock gear can’t take a lot of “dead hooks” that shock will eventually break those smaller gears. Now oh street tires on the road, red light to red light stuff. I honestly think they will still live forever, even drag radials and the occasional track hits they will probably still live.

    You should be able to do this on any manual transmission with synchro and sliders. I know alot of the modern 6 speeds will grind when the synchros get worn. I'd love a no clutch shift T56. For free. Lol.

      @@egodeathplease in theory you are correct. I’ve only ever done it on 3 and 4 speeds. But essentially all the manuals are the same just more stuff inside the case.

      Yes. Just make sure you have a good shifter. You don’t want to slam it into reverse thinking you’re going to 2nd. Because it’s gonna go, and it’s gonna be a bad when it does
