Low Gear Sets
Transmission Pans
Cast aluminum deep and finned transmission pans greatly reduce transmission fluid
temperatures. The extra capacity of this pan and the heat dissipation characteristics of
aluminum make this great looking pan a must for any performance combination using the
200R4 transmission. Special pedestals in the sump area support the original filter and
pickup, so no additional modification or parts are needed when switching to this pan. Holds
two additional quarts. Temperature sensor can be easily added.

Originally used in Motor Home
applications, low gear sets can greatly
improve the acceleration characteristics of heavy
vehicles. These low gear sets are ideal for fullsize
Buicks, especially when the rear gear is conservative and
changing rear gears is not practical. Such as with the 9-3/8 rears commonly used in
the fullsize and Riviera cars, lack of upgrade parts can make installing a better ratio
rear gear almost impossible. Also perfect for tow applications, the low gear set will
increase your mechanical advantage of your Turbo 400 transmission from a 2.45:1
ratio to a 2.75:1 or even a 3.00:1. The second gear is also changed in relationship to
the first, while third gear remains a 1:1. This combination results in better acceleration
while maintaining the same highway gas mileage and improving in town mileage, due
to the cars ability to get up to speed quicker with less time in the throttle. Available in a
2.75:1 and a super duty 3.00:1 for extreme use such as that found with higher end racing. A 2.10 gear is also available, this
gear is usually used for race applications that want a close ratio set up.
