Are the G52 gearboxes able to withstand v8 power?

Seems cheap. Even if you have to replace the gearbox would be a cheapish truck.

depends on the type of driver you are.my g52 came out of a stolen and recovered and sounded like there were multiple dying cats in it and still survived 6months hard work behind the 350.i did end up upgrading to an r series in the end tho.but g52 is now in my spare truck and is still going strong :lol:

I was wondering as I managed to knacker one with a 3Y years ago lol, maybe it was on its last legs anyhow. This one would be good enough buying all certed with the 350
