Ihave a question about the midland gear tranny in the MC. What is it that makes it relatively weak. Is it the housing, the gears,what? I want to put moocho HPs into it and I'm curious about the limitations and what is the cause in this case.

I think its due to housing design but I don't know. Iput anyone. Also, what's the max rated HP you can put in without blowing it up?

Doesn't anyone know? I keep reading about limitations but no quantified data. The big question... will a midlands handle 175bhp?
