Faceplating is not necessary, but we do a lot of stuff to them. Price is $3299 for a "Pro" TKO 600.

What's done: Includes Sure Shift upgrade, bronze shift fork pads, cryogenically treated gears, includes re-shimming. The 1st-4th gears, sliders, and hubs are REM finished.

These are rated and dyno tested for about 770 lb-ft.

If you think you would need more than that, the Magnum T-56 starts at about 700 lb-ft capacity and the same processes can be applied to increase torque capacity. However, I'm not a Mag fan....just too expensive, too heavy, too big, too everything. Also, in a lot of applications, the midplate needs to be modified, especially when using a twin disc clutch kit. That adds about another $300-350 to the bill on top of everything else.
