Hey Gary- What transmission are you replacing with the TKX?

I drove mine to the office today, and finally had the chance to jump on the freeway and feel the overdrive... It's like a completely different car. 50mph in 4th runs at the same 2200 RPM as 75mph in 5th. 80mph is right at 2500rpm.

It's Perfect. (for reference, my car runs 3.36 rear gears, and rather tall 235/70-15 rear tires)

And, I'm pleased to say- This transmission shifts as smoothly and cleanly as any old Muncie or Toploader. It is SO MUCH better than every Tremec transmission I have ever driven before.

Of course, it will take me many more miles of clutch breakin, before I can test how it shifts at WOT, but so far, it's been money well spent.
