I have used them a few dozen times
After a few years of abuse, they did not seem to hold up any better than the tan Borg Warners.

How about the modified Raybestos Z-Pack with 16 one sided clutches for the 3-4 shift?

There are some that claim that the Raybestos and the Borg Warner hold up better than the Red Alto.

Ask 10 different trans builders what they like, and you will likely get 10 different answers. Just how it is.
