Re: Enginge/Trans opinions

I would go the SM465 route. They are relatively inexpensive, common and robust. The granny gear gives you plenty of grunt down low to get moving if you pull a boat or something and lets you move slowly off road. It will keep the rpm down 10% or so compared to the TH350 as well.
