What really got me going on this topic was the statement from KEISLERGENE. He stated; "Simply put, Mr. Detranova missed a shift and engaged the gear only halfway when he released the clutch, causing the gear teeth to fail. There is absolutely no evidence of this in the photos and anyone who knows anything about the mechanics of this transmission knows that statement is way off base. What is someone to think when this kind of a statement comes from a company representative? It truly appears that there is a cover up and you are fabricating stories. To top it off, through all of this, no one from Keisler ever tried to retract that statement or say it was a mistake..
If you or anyone form Keisler would have simply stated that it is your opinion the torque capabilities of this transmission were exceeded, I'm sure you would have gotten much less grief. You could even be upfront about the obvious design flaw. It may be that this transmission will perform to its advertised specs with this flaw, but wouldn’t it be nice if it was corrected?? Maybe the torque specs could be raised!
