I just realized - you've got a practically new 1.0L transmission lying...

No, no pressure :D

The lower rpm acceleration should help a little. Too hard to say how much. Can you still shift at 15, 30, 40, 50 or do you have to stretch it out a little more?

Are you sure? The cluster in my Aunt's Metro is identical to mine (with the exception of the trip meter). I assumed the gear on the speedo cable was just a different size to allow the same cluster to...

Pretty interesting. So there are no major gear ratio changes (besided FD) until you hit the 1.6L Swifts. At that point you'd be looking at a huge torque difference between the 1.0L and the 1.6L so...

Oh right, I totally forgot about that. The "decreased percentages" from everyone whining that they couldn't attain the numbers the EPA posted.

Just pondering some more and I was wondering if those two older Swiftclones you have actually do have the same gear ratios as the Blackfly. The late 80s early 90s clones certainly seemed to get...
