Found the CHE set-up at the site below for $149 shipped which includes both the k-member and torque limiters.

To help with shifting at higher RPMs, the K-member & limiters would be the most benficial. And for what's its worth, I bought my CHE anti-squat brackets from that same vendor and had the part quickly.

I guess i will go shifter next. Thank you. I completely understand the beautiful first gear launch that is then ruined by a missed 2nd gear. LOL!!! i love and hate this car! I don't know about the motor mounts... one of the things that i enjoy about the s197 is its smoothness.
I might just sell the thing and go c6 Z06

oops i meant c5, not c6.
oh boy here we go with the gt500 vs z06 thing again.. lol
a c5 Z06 is no where near the cost of a gt500, they are in the mid 20k range. Gt500s are 40+, especially where i live (Miami FL).
As for your 12.5 moosestang, imagine what it would have ran with a more some quick shifting.
You my friend are supercharged, and have power to spare. When your close to stock as i am every last bit counts.
