Need to get on the waiting list:
I just heard about this trans on the cruise to MATS, and went thru all the posts today, I want to thank you for all your efforts so far. I have a Keisler A41 4 spd OD auto in my 67 GTX, the 572 pump gas hemi (635 HP & 665 ft lb T )is too much for it and need a OD manual trans option, I too had looked at the Mcleod trans but not any more, also had looked at the RS option but not interested. I can keep this trans going for enough time if I don't lean on the engine a lot,but would hope one is available later this summer before I head back to AZ for the winter. I also have sent in a e-mail to your website so I hope you can find the time to get back to me soon

Sorry if I missed it, but when's can we expect to get our hands on a copy? Is there a hydraulic clutch kit available? My '70 Charger is an original 383/4-speed car (23 spline) and I'd love to get rid of the Z-bar and upgrade to an 18 spline 5 speed!

Hello Gang,
Here is an update to our 5 speed progress.
We currently have several units out there in a bodies being torture tested. We have made a design change to the shifter fork arrangement and also to the 5th gear synchronizer design. So far the design change has proved to be a change for the better so we are now testing for durability with our proprietary enhanced key spring design . We are also awaiting from the foundry a revised tailhousing pattern for E Body tails as well as B Body tails. More information to follow as things develop. Thank you for your patience. No product will be released until I am 100 percent satisfied.

I really applaud Jamie's straight forward nature and I for one will no doubt be buying one of these bad boys in the future. I did buy an aluminum overdrive 4 spd from him and it's a work of art. Thanks Jamie!

Thank You! I would much rather wait and have something that is sorted out and trouble free!

Need to order a twin disc clutch this week, understand that new trans will be 18 spline. Unfortunatly don't have any 18 spline 4-speed boxes if 5-speed is excessively delayed.

What to do? Don't wish to order two different $1200 clutch setups.

why would you need to buy another clutch setup when you can just buy another disc , assuming the pressure plate is still good ?

Discs, not disc.

What is your point?

I'm expected to buy a clutch, drive my car about and then purchase replacement discs for said $1200 clutch setup after the 18 spline transmission is finally released.

I don't like wasting money, throwing away two expensive discs is not my idea of a good time.

Nobody is forcing you to buy this transmission. Get over it, you're ruining the thread

Asking for an ETA in regards to a product announced several months ago isn't unreasonable.

Get over it? I even offered to drive my car to PA and test on my dime and pay full retail to boot.

Just find out the cost of the discs you need.


I want my fair share

Guys, lets try to keep it civil. I understand your concerns. This is the way that I look at it, I am assuming that you have a Mcleod Twin Disc clutch. If you do, I will rehub your discs from 23 spline to 18 spline for you. As for a timeframe. We are working as fast as we can. As I stated before, I am not comfortable releasing anything until we are 100% happy with performance.

How are the modifications coming along, Jamie? I have the car up in the air with the exhaust off. This would be a perfect time for me to upgrade the transmission.
