I need the cheaper option.





The CHEAPER ... in the long run .... is a aftermarket front drum. THEN the trans can NOT blow-up. The sprag might still fail .... but then all you have to R&R is that one item.

IF you go the route of all then fancy shields and blankets .... the problem then ... is IF the trans blows-up and then is successfully contained .... the trans then is TOAST ...and maybe even the converter.
