Re: Polycarbonate side plates for lighter gearboxes

We used delrin for a year in our drive transmissions and are now back on aluminum heavily pocketed for sideplates. Plastics are really too flexible for this application where you want all the efficiency you can get. I know 254/968 both swapped back to aluminum as well for the same reason
