Would it help to have C1-2 and C4's involved or should we limit this to C3's at this time ?

I forsee lots of transmissions in the for sale section. The Keisler Tremec was the best upgrade I have ever done to the car. Well worth it.

I think the some of the forum sponsors have it all backwards. Put the deal on the table and we can make an informed decision.

If I had another C3 I would jump on this band wagon and buy another Keisler 5 speed. Because why, you ask. It's the best thing to come along for the older cars. I just can't say enough about this tranny. Except, maybe Keisler could have send a cruise control setup with it. It's hard keeping it under 85 mph in 5th gear.

I'm in as well. Just sent the email to Keisler.

I just sandblasted the frame on my '69 so now is the right time to convert it to be able to use the automatic type removeable crossmember.

We just put in a TKO600 in my brother in laws car. He has 580 at the flywheel. They said he should be good to go with the TKO600.

No overdive with the Richmond 5 speed. Some like the Richmond better. Even with 3.70 gears I have a final drive of 2.51 with the Tremec.
