Re: mitchell over drive

I installed one in my 29 Tudor. I love it, but if I do it again, I would choose the 20% reduction rather than the 30% reduction.

Re: best overdrive for the $$

I put a Mitchell overdrive in my 29 Tudor. I had the option of 20% or 30% and chose 30%. If I had it to do over, I would go with the 20%.
