Looks like a weak a$& mustang launching soft
Yea those weak ass Boss 302's run 11's stock with a set of slicks
Call me a doubting Thomas, I didn't see one time on the boards watching that video and the launches seem to be selectively edited out.
Anything close to a launch looked more like a roll to me for what its worth.

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 it listed 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.
Here are some pictures of a 727, ss700, and 904 together for size comparison...
tails are lifted so all are about level...
the 727 is wider, till where the ss700 shifter is...
the 904 is about the same size across as the ss700, till shifter again...
across for height in the tunnel ss700 appears to be a little lower than both until the shifter again...
if you need better dimensions, let me know what you need, I'll try to get them for you...
My opinion, the ss700 is about the same size as the 904, tail is a bit shorter so it needs the driveshaft that comes in the kit...
measured the way instructed in the install directions, mine measures 58 5/8"... that's cl of rear yoke to the back of the trans casting... just ordered on Monday so we'll see how long the unit they ship is...

Convertible Bee, Have you driven the car with the new transmission? I think Keisler may have modified the tailshaft casting? When I called about my transmission they mentioned something about waiting for a new tailshaft casting? I'm calling the Monday to get an update and find out what is going on. I did remove the old 833 4-speed today, and took some measurements of the stock position of the trans output to tunnel, and oil pan to drag link, so I'm ready to install the new trans if it ever gets delivered.....

Any pictures of your trans? I am curious if they have made the revisions to the tailshaft housing. Is the Speedo housing behind the transmission mount?
I'll post photos later, but the transmission is the same as convertable bee's. I ran into all the same fitment issues. The kit wants the tailshaft hanging down 5" from the top of the tunnel to the center of the output shaft. This has the headers hitting the steering linkage. The stock trans output shaft is about 3-1/2" to the top of the tunnel. So, it looks like raising the rear of the trans 1-1/2" moves the oilpan/headers up about 1/2" for clearance. To move the trans up that far requires trimming the sides of the tailshaft, and making clearance for the speedometer cable, and then the trans is still touching the sided of the trans/T-bar crossmember. I'm going to look at convertible bees photos again, but on my car, I may just notch the T-bar crossmember for mors side clearance

Considering how much I've read on how their previous transmissions require modifications when they claim they don't... I'm no surprised at all this one is the same way.
