Thats where the zero effort tranny comes in. No crash boxes !!! Supposedly they work well with turbine applications.

Pat,
This is a Sage #8 drive. It's an Arneson to the tenth power. It has a vertical lift of + - 4". It gose with this tranny. A zero effort tranny. With clutches for shifting.
I think Superboat might have a record holder here.

I guess, when money is no object, these things count.. Don't have to worry about drives blowing. They haven't had 1 drive or tranny failure. Hmmmmm....Mercury uses their trannys for their big blues.
