Hey Truck, here's the dl on the 900c trans.
The engine and trans are very similar because the 900 is basically just a modified 750 engine. From the crankcase, the engine's output shaft is on the left side (just like the 750) -However, from there it enters into what they call the "sub-trans". It's here that you select from either the "High" or "Low" settings. Note that this is a manual sub-trans, too.
In theory, I guess you could use the 2 different settings for city or highway driving, but from what I've heard, most just like to throw it into "High" on the highway and use it like an overdrive setting.
Hope it helps! If you have any more questions let me know, as I've been modding a 900c
