ConveribleBee -
Would you be willing to give us a breakdown of what this kit costs (saw the $300 for the BH)?
I suspect a bunch of us are curious yet don't want to bombard Keisler for a formal quote.
I only have the intial early pre production quotes, they may have changed +/- depending on how complete the customer wants the install kit, ss700, just the tranny $2499,...A complete kit, bell, clutch, flywheel, tranny, shifter, driveshaft, crossmember/mount, etc, etc misc install hardware $3600-$3800 depending on application, hyd TOB, add $599....I don't know what discounts may apply

The price is fair, now I hope it fits an automatic floor A body. Not that I care about cutting a car but it would be nice to keep the floor space.

If you had a 727 in it the ss700 will should fit, I have a 904 on the shelf, will look to see if the 727 is much bigger... will try to set the ss700 next to the 904 this weekend an get a picture of them together...
I'm pulling the engine next week to freshen it up for this spring, seals, oil leaks, and have the p/s box rebuilt...
For the price, Dayclona has stated is about what I paid, $3500. trans shifter, driveshaft, shifter, ball, hardware...

Would that be nice if it did fit the auto tunnel! Thanks for checking.
Does Dayclona sell them?

Let me rephrase that, What Dayclona has stated is about what I paid,
ss700's are only available through Keisler...

Has any race testing been done on this trans? Power shifting up over 6'500rpm....not just clean shifting, but POWER shifting up high?
Can you launch at WOT and let the clutch out with slicks?
There's a couple of vids on Youtube from Keisler and others testing the SS700 at the track/street

It's rated at 700lb- ft so it should be strong enough for most cars.
Torque capacity and max RPM ratings are 2 separate design criteria, though. But yes, I'd agree with your statement otherwise.

Sounds like it was tested in a mustang with a 5.0 coyote and they rev to 7000-7500 rpm.

Well......it's gone quiet on this. Guess it hasn't been fully tested on a track!
Jamie got back to me about his trans, and he's tested his pretty good at the track. WOT power shifts at 6500rpm.
I like this SS700 trans, but I'd like to hear / see of some real drag strip testing on them.
The SS700 has just hit the scene, so to speak, there's a few of the Keisler and enthusiast test RS600 vids out there, as the SS700 is basically the RS600, the RS600 was a remanned T45 from BW with Keislers mods, basically the RS600 was a "filler offering" untill the Legend/Keisler offering was into production stages, the SS700 is a joint venture between Legend and Keisler to be self-dependent on castings and internal hardware, rather than purchase whole transmissions, or outsource the cases, internals, assembly, etc...the SS700 is an internal upgrade in mat'ls and components, and a modified transmission casting...I'm waiting to see how these units do in the hands of the enthusiast before a purchase, if it's on par, or superior to the Tremec TKO600/650, then I have no problem ordering a unit thru/from Keisler, I'm not too happy with the .70 OD, I'd much prefere the TKO600 .64 OD

The issue raised was "drag strip testing by the manufacturer". It appears keisler is lacking here... Well Dayclona to the rescue to explain away, lack of testing!! "Uh the ss700 just hit the streets". Dayclona, stick to the issue. "Drag strip testing by the manufacturer" not the end user! One more point... just because a coyote 5.0 revs 7500 doesn't mean the trans will shift there at WOT! Plus they have a less than stellar torque number.
