The tranny was installed in a 1968 Dodge Charger R/T and I had a Lakewood scattersheild in it. I had to send it to Keisler and they had to send it out to have the bearing retainer hole bored out to the TKO spec from the Hemi box diameter. That is what was not done correctly and forced me to re-dial in the sheild.

The kit included TKO 600 tranny (tailhousing lightly milled on top so it bolts into 68 dodge B-body without cutting torsion bar crossmember), driveshaft with tranny yoke, speedo cable, modified transmission mounting brace and ford mount, and Spec stage 3+ clutch disc and p.plate ($480).

You're right - it is very expensive. But, I didn/t want to cut up the car - it's original, numbers and all.

Keisler pretty much turned their back on me. Tremec won't warranty it because they say that Keisler opened it up and they can't vouch for their work. They are, however, looking at pictures of the gear and see if they can determine the cause of the failure.
