The Brinn Transmission Kit for 1-Piece Rear Main Seal is a complete lightweight racing transmission package designed specifically for 1986-up Small Block Chevrolet (1-piece rear main seal) engines. Engineered for competitive oval track and dirt track racing, this kit combines Brinn’s proven 2-speed racing transmission with the essential installation components required for a professional drivetrain setup.
Designed to reduce rotating mass while maximizing durability, the Brinn transmission features a lightweight aluminum case, cryogenically treated gears and shafts, and an advanced internal dog-clutch design that delivers quick, precise shifts under demanding racing conditions. By eliminating the need for a conventional clutch assembly and throwout bearing, the transmission improves throttle response, reduces drivetrain weight, and minimizes maintenance.
The included heavy-duty steel bellhousing is compatible with both Small Block Chevrolet (SBC) and Small Block Ford (SBF) engine bolt patterns. Precision laser-cut and CNC-machined construction ensures excellent alignment and durability while adapting engines to Muncie and Saginaw transmission bolt patterns, including Brinn, Bert, Falcon, and similar racing transmissions.
Whether you’re building a Wissota Modified, IMCA Modified, Sport Mod, Hobby Stock, or other circle track race car, this complete transmission kit provides reliable performance, easy installation, and race-proven durability.
