Hello All I'm in need of where I can findout what the ratios for each gear is in the alfa trannys and the beta tranny's . As some of you know I race my beta swaped accent and I run right on the rev limiter most of the race in second gear( bogs in third). I'm looking to build a tranny with a 1,2, and then like a gear in between 2 and 3. I only use 1 and 2 and reverse so If I can build this and eliminate 3,4,5 . I will machine the gears if I have to but would like to maybe steal from another tranny first of possible. We done this for years on the asphault, but sorry to say know one has come up with gears for Hyundai trannies go figure!!!!!!!!!!!! Lare SSB
Ok question, what is diffeent about the casing of the trannie, like alpha versus beta trannies? is there a different shape or size diference?

I can't remember where I downloaded these, but I've got the disassembly and reassembly videos for the alpha and beta tranny. They're almost identical in apperance. If you can tell me a place that'll host them, I'll put them up for download.

I have had them next to each other and they are basically identical in size and mount hole locations. the only differances I found was
1) 1/2 inch thicker were the axles plug in, 1/4 inch on each side.
2) 2 of the mounting locations (front has 2 and the side has 1) have extra bolt holes for the beta mount brackets.
3) Reverse light plug in different location, needs to be modified for Alpha mount to fit.
There may have been some other minor things but I can't remember them if there was. So basically the Beta tranny will swap onto the alpha motor with the alpha mounts and they don't need modified. Now I tried this with the beta motor/trans and the problem was the motor was up against the passenger side wall when using the original 3 alpha tranny mounts and locations.
