I am no engineer, but the BEST 18 spline boxes I have had (many many 4 speed 440 cars)all rattled even with new bearings, and are a bit noisy at highway speed.They shift pretty good, but still clash if I yank 'em too fast.
The rollerized/tapered timken bearing stuff in the 855,the aluminum cases, the o-ring seals, the revised shifter arrangement all sound VERY promising.
Hope this is informative.




So...you're #48 and you still don't have a trans.

Sheesh.
