Default TREMEC TRANNYS

Are the tremec transmissions as good as the manufacture says they are, If you run a tremec please let me know your thoughts and the HP and TORQUE of your car.

I have a Tremec T45...does that count? LOL. Well, it's s piece of ****. [:'(]

No, it's alright, but it's just adequate enough to handle a stock Mustang, so if you want to mod your Mustang to kingdom come, then you should definitely get an aftermarket tranny.

I* sell Tremec Transmissions and have had no complaints from any customers in the past 2 plus years. Any Transmission can be a good transmission as long as there is an aftermarket quadrant assembly in the car. It is very important to be properly adjusted to make sure you have proper clutch engagement/disengaemnet. That is the killer of all transmissions. When people install the aftermarket quadrants they tend to adjust the clutch pedal for feel instead of function. You are supposed to adjust it for function not feel.

I selll the TKO 500 if interested.
