I like a blanket 'cause I personally saw a shield turn into a yellow ball of yarn that did NOTHING to prevent fragments from coming through the floor. Driver almost lost his foot.
Many of you heard me tell that above story before.
The drivers foot and toes basically turned black, and the doctor was prepping to remove a large part of it when he brushed across the toes. The patient groaned when that happened, and then the doctor did it again.
At this point the driver said why did you do that again? Doctors reply, you can feel that? Well, then, we need a different approach...… Do you have trans. temp issues with Blanket? I'm not opposed to a blanket aside from the temp issue

That's is not to say you won't have any heating issues though My current bracket car with a glide that now stalls around 5600 RPM against the brake runs under 150 F all the time at the track, I have to warm the tranny up against the brake to get heat into the fluid

I run the CSR shield. I had one on my cuda's 727 when it exploded 10 years ago and it did it's job protecting me. No complaints here.
Basically your only options are the CSR shield or a blanket in a stock body car. I prefer the shield.

the CSR shield solves both the transmission and Flywheel rule - actually has two SFI numbers on it - as with all safety products some minor adjustements needed - as in get the BFH out of the tool box! To make sure it hasn't been modified.

It had TCI #940100. Pain in the but to get the trans out (my motor is slid back). I took it off. No one has even questioned it. That being said I'm going to make a small mod and reinstall it this winter. I've seen to many ring gears come off in the last year. Doug

If you just use a blanket,your supposed to still have a flywheel shield. My heap has a shield with the HEMI set back 2 inches.

That guy down there CSR is a piece of work. When I went to get mine recerted the second time, he gave me all kinds of grief. I had already sent it down there because I never dreamed of there being a problem. You basically couldn't tell this thing from new. He kept telling me he couldn't recert it because of this or that. None of it made sense. I kept on him for a legitimate reason. He finally came up with that after so many years the carbon fiber starts to lose its strength. After that he recerted it just to get rid of me. But I've talked to other people and he won't do a second recert. I not an expert so I couldn't tell if that was true or not about the carbon fiber losing its strength. Obviously it’s due to the extreme humidity where you live! ....of course if it were me we’d blame the dry excessive heat.

It’s my take that they don’t sell any.... I’m assuming since I’ve been waiting since July for my 904 peice. I am hoping by the time mine gets to old to recert someone will have a SFI case for 727s and 904s....... not likely but hopes and dreams.

There will be a time when a transmission case can be 3D printed.
I guess that could be done now, but not in something that is strong enough and also light enough.
