5 or 6 speed Transmission for 67 Camaro

[BARN FIND]

Tremec and Keisler are both in the Knoxville, TN area and Keisler puts together kits that include everything you need including the Tremec tranny of your choice to install a 5 or 6 speed in your Camaro. They even modify the tranny to use a speedo cable.

Go to the discussion forums at www.lateral-g.net or www.pro-touring.com. There are plenty of guys using overdrive transmissions there and have plenty of opinions. There are now T56's that handle over 1000 hp.

I'm running the TKO 500 in my 71 RS. Best money I've spent. Bought mine from dark Horses in Washington state for $1750 shipped with the speedo adapter. Keisler kit was in the 2600 range w/ everthing and 8 weeks behind. Not a big deal to make a crossmember had mine done in 4-5 hrs but did it on the lift. Would reccomend it to anyone.

TKO 500 is a 5 speed, your signature line says it has a 6 speed, which do you have? Does Dark Horse make a kit to put the 6sp in a 2nd Gen?

Remember Mike, You do not have to buy new. All brands are out there used and in good condition. I would call Eric Swarr and just talk. Also look in National Dragster for some good deals on Jericos. Everything and anything is out there. Sam

Hey Sammy...find me a clutchless Jericho 5-banger for the price of TKO and I'll be golden!

<font color="blue">What about the Gear Vendors unit?
It's a bolt on unit, gives you the OD &amp; all you really need is a new driveshaft (so you can put it back ti stock).
It's a little pricey, but, it can handle anything you throw at it &amp; you dont need a new CLUTCH, SHIFTER, yadda,yadda,yadda.
Think about it. </font>

<font color="blue">... So you get a 5th gear overdrive and at least one clutchless shift to be used at any moment
(we ship the kit with our 6speed car badges) and a huge performance gain plus
get to retain your period correct transmission in the car and get the worlds strongest overdrive trans.
Since your Muncie or BorgWarner is stronger than any non-race 5 or 6 speed,
the Gear Vendors is just he right way to get overdrive in your GM manual performance car.</font>
