There will also be some intangibles to deal with, like, will the crossmember work with a standard transmission, what type of speed-o-meter is it mechanical or electric? If you have anymore questions let me know and I will try to help you the best I can, unfortunately I only deal with the Tremecs, but the basic principles will apply. jimig@standardtransmission.com
Sal and Jimi,
You think the Tremec is a better idea? Which one, the TKO 600? There seems to be quite a few issues with these things, locking up, jumping out of gear, shredding teeth, etc. I honestly haven't followed it all too closely, but are they reliable? What's involved with the crossmember? Thanks, guys.
