The jokes are cute guys but we know that 40 year old design Ford Toploaders and 40 year old design Chrysler A-833 transmissions don't have the frequency, type of failures or power train component alignment problems we are seeing here. They also weren't sold with the aggressive performance message the Tremec units were sold with.

The buyer beware admonition is certainly not suspended for transmission purchases but at the same time you as a consumer end up relying primarily on the representations of the manufacturer and the reseller untill enough units are in service to assess real world performance.

This is the real world performance assessment we are going through and I for one think it is important so that future potential buyers can make an informed decision prior to purchase.

Lets the facts say what they will say. Isn't that one of the benefits of the website?

p.s. Jamo, my apologies for my last post I was not focused in the post and tended to repeat myself. Sorry I ddn't have time to do a better job but wanted to get the point made.
