[1795]

I have used a McLeod HTOB with 3 years of racing without any problems. Just prior to pulling the engine the year it tasing not working well, but that was due to boiling the fluid out of it and once I held the old fluid and refilled, it worked fine. I am going with a Quarter Master setup this time and like the look of it. The Quarter Master HTOB comes with a stud to replace one of the bolts on the front of the transmission and there is a corresponding cutout on the bracket for the HTOB that fits over the stud and locks it in place so that it does not spin on the shaft during install after you have set the distance from the forks on the pressure plate.

I did notice that during install, while I was underneath the car and wrestling with the transmission that the McLeod had a tendency to spin on the input shaft I was never fully sure if I got it back to the right depth.

No major concern with me, but then again it is a race car and the engine comes out every 2-3 years. Also, with the Mark III you have more room for an external fork than I do with the Mark II.
