  3. Eliminates propeller kick-back & damaging harmonics
  4. Makes the engine think it’s still in a car
  5. Clutch stays engaged so propeller can be used as a speed brake.
02

Straight Cut Gears

  1. Most efficient transfer of power
  2. Eliminates fwd/aft thrust loads into drive shafts and into front and rear of case reducing weight
  3. Light weight heat treated gears for maximum strength and crown shaved for quiet operation
