Originaly those covers were on Hydros using two speeds and on flatties using the clutch pack for smooth transition to forward motion. They were and still are used as flywheel covers and drive cover adapters.
Seen some pics in the forum of what looks like Lenco on flywheel covers. Are flatties using Lenco trans? Can they down shift?

The transmissions are pretty much designated for drag boats. But you will see three types of transmissions in the boats. Lenco, B&J, and Owens.
I use a lenco in my PGF/UGF and it works good. I've had a few little issues but I guess that is normal. Also run a Owens as a back up. We've had it for over 8 years and never had one issue. Change the oil on Saturday and its good to go. They are not made to down shift, however a lenco will down shift if you loose air pressure. Lenco is air to hold in high gear and a owens is air to hold in low gear.
Lenco also made a safty Drive / Cluch here is a picture of mine it works great.

I have one of those saftey drive clutches for sale if someone needs one.
I've got one of those Lenco covers if anyone is interested.
