I dont mean to complain....

But $1800 before taxes for a Tremec TKo... WTF!!! GOOOOlllyyy!! I mean hell, thats even before the new bellhousing, shifter crossmemeber and Yolk... ITs going to cost well over 2200 bucks to get me back on the track... I just had to post this.. My girl doesnt understand what the big deal is... As much as i said i would never put another dime into my current tranny, its damn near worth sending it someplace thats top notch for maybe a grand and getting it built right.... not being able to hit the strip and going to shows with only 1,2,4 and reverse sucks, but I dont think I can justify that much more money into my toy right now.... Sorry guys, just a rant...

My dad just bought a Jerico, the one he got new is $4700. He paid about half that, but still, makes the Tremec look cheap!

I will be doing a T56 sometime in the future, and will know your pain!

i know what you mean, its nuts what tranny's go for. i am weighing all my options right now to see what is my best route to go (even considering an auto )

I got my Promotion TKO w/ about 50 miles on it off of corral.net. It also included the following:
McLeod clutch & Pressure plate
Steeda shifter
McLeod scattershield
FMS Alum driveshaft
Xtended fork
Modified x-member

Everything for $1850 ..... deals are out there you just have to look.

Rebuild that t5 with a g force kit. I'd take a g force over a tko anyday. Better yet, a t56 would be hella fun in a fox.

Yea, I have 9 year old 3550 with about 600 HARD passes on it that I bought used.. I have exploded nearly everything in it at least twice.. lol.. I really did not want to build it again, but looks like the route I am going to take. I was checking out G-Force but they want like 1200 dollars just for parts.... As far as deals, I am keeping an eye out. I have seen a couple going for about that with all the parts to go with em...

It is alot once you get it going.

Lucky i found a complete promotion setup NIB from a local guy for $2000. Tko 600, billet flywheel cable and firewall adjuster, race clutch (which is brutal on the street) bell housing and yoke. Feeling lucky to only spend 2 grand is kinda wierd.

G force doesn't save all that much money if you get the upgraded shaft setup. Basically that only saves you the money on the bellhousing.

Well if it makes you feel better i paid 1200 for my 3550 and wish i had stepped up to a TKO. Once/if this one dies i'm switching to a T56.

I spent 2200 if I remember correctly for the TKO + clutch etc. and I wish I had stepped up to a viper T56 lol.
