Default Alpha to Bravo 3 difference

Hi
Have any of our members who have gone from a Alpha one gen II to a Bravo III noticed any sounds from the drive that you are not sure if they are anything to be concerned with or not. eg: a rattling sound when in gear at a idle that goes away when on plane.A wining noise etc.. We don't have any problems yet but we sure notice a big difference in the sounds on the Bravo III.

Paul

yeah...I did when I went from a 2455 bay to the maxum with 6.2ltr b3 drive...it makes a ton more noise and was hard to get in and out of drive...so..had a new linkage installed along with the cable ...it shifts smoother and easier..but still makes the whinning noise and other strange noise compared to the a1g2 drive....but...from what my mechanic tells me....it's normal...nothing wrong with the drive...
