Tko's are great trannys I love mine. Even tho it's an earlier version of the one he's selling. It'll handle your car plus a s/c.

from what I have been around the TKO don't like to shift real well at high RPM without some mods. That may be what Prime is talking about. I have head it from a few guys that have run them. I don't know from experience from having one like I said I am a auto guy .

With the money you plan on spending on that built AOD you can find yourself a nice 6spd, I'd take a 6spd over an AOD anyday.

I'm looking into getting that TKO600 from kweb288. I think that'd be really great.
