Wether to buy supershifters?

Actually, the large CIM doesn't work in the Super Shifter at this point; only the Gen2 AM Shifter is designed for it.

Really? That's really disappointing, the output shaft is the same so what doesn't fit?

Why did Looking Forward post in this thread? Perhaps he/she was not logged in to the right account

I wouldn't worry too much about getting gearboxes that don't work with 09' motors. Ever notice how the SS wasn't designed to use a big CIM? And how it came out before kickoff? You'd think Andy would've made it interfacable with the big CIM had he thought it was in the kit...

There is too much interference with the large CIM (mini-bike motor) with the supershifter, because of the additional reduction shaft and encoder mounts. We tried to create a modified plated supershifter to fit it, but decided that it was just easier to use the AM gen 2 ones and create an additional reduction through sprockets.
