RE: Ford racing tlok
it depends on your use...if you are running a highly modified or f/i 4.0 and drag racing, the t-lok may not hold up over time. the detroit is definitely tougher, can take a lot of abuse. but if you are a daily driver who just likes to get on it and not a trackster, i think you'll be fine with the t-lok.

RE: Ford racing tlok
from what i've read, the t-lok is plenty fine for occasional track runs and moderate modded stangs. if you're going big on mods and track runs, it would be common sense to buy the most durable parts. if money is an issue, then going big shouldn't be an option.

RE: Ford racing tlok
i blew my stock open up on stock 3.8 auto power ([&:]or whats there)if you dont keep hammering it im sure it will be fine, but if your into barking the tires, powershifting, chirping gears etc and drive your car like you should, just get a detroit, girdle, and panhard bar reloctaion, because when it comes down to it, the tlok MIGHT hold, the detroit you know WILL,
and for those that say just get an 8.8, well ive blown them up on a stock mach 1 so you mise well just build the 7.5
