I have a Gear Vendors Overdrive Unit I would like to sell. It is a P Type which is rated up to 1200hp. I bought the unit used and planned to use it in my Firebird but now have gone a different route. I was told the unit worked great in the car it came from but I have not run the unit so I can't be sure there are not issues with the unit so I am going to price it accordingly so that if there are any issues a person can get it rebuilt and still be in it for a good price. The unit is currently set up for a C6 transmission but the adapter can be changed to work with dozens of different set ups. If you have a C6 and want to use the unit you will only need a coupler which is about $100. If you want to use it with a turbo 400 you will need a turbo 400 adapter and coupler which $335 new from Maximum Overdrives and they will pay $125 for the C6 adapter which would make it $210. Maximum Overdrives will rebuild the unit for $550 which includes a 6 month unlimited mileage warranty. So if you used the unit with a C6 and had the unit rebuilt you would be into for a total of $1500($850+$100 coupler+$550 rebuild) which is $1100 cheaper than new. If you used it with a Turbo 400 you would be into for $1610($850+210 coupler/adapter+$550 rebuild) which is about $1000 less than new. I had planned to just use a switch to engage the overdrive but Maximum Overdrives has a new electronics set up for $175 if you wanted to go that route. If you got the unit and tried it and everything works fine--you got a bargain! The pic below is the GV overdrive with the C6 adapter installed. the long tapered part is the adapter and the rest is the actual overdrive. $850 plus shipping, I might would consider a partial trade for a SLIC, Alky kit, or Trans/MAF plus cash for the GV also. Thanks

Lots of interest but no buyers yet. Still for sale. Thanks
 
I know this a long shot but, do you still have the gear vendors unit?

I sold the unit with the C6 adapter but I do have another complete turbo 400 set up that I am going to sell. It comes with all of the electronics, adapter, coupler and all and is ready to bolt on and go. I would like to get $1425 plus shipping for everything. Thanks
 
Any idea how old the unit is or how many miles? I am very interested, any pictures? Thanks.
