 Ken,
 Just to clarify the first photo, all left hand planetary are 2.85 starting
 at the top, 3 planet down to 4 planet and last 6 planet.
 The next row, at top, is the Overdrive (with sun gear) and the bottom is the
 2.17 -6 planet.

   Thanke I think I got it figured out now, I just pulled down a C-6
core, I am thinking about building a 3.17 redrive.

Good idea Ken. Great for an RX8 motor. I pryed the RX8 out of Robin's
hands today and drove it to the hanger. I swear the engine just keeps getting
more powerful. 3600 miles so far. Driving the RX8 for awhile makes you wonder
why they still make piston engines. It really comes alive over 100 MPH.
It is growing on me. I have to watch out very carefully or I am going to get
one heck of a speeding ticket one of these days. The sound it makes is growing
on me too. Much different than the RX7.
