Nice to hear this. I plan on putting a manual trans in my Barracuda once i'm done experimenting with the car and no longer go to the track. Whats the price on these for A body?

It appears there are no Mopar applications available yet. Looks to be around $2800.

In the questions someone asked if it would fit their 68 Dart and the answer was yes they had a kit for that.

Something that bolts in would be nice.

Silversport says the length and mounts are the same, so it's a direct replacement for their TKO kits. You just don't have to cut the transmission tunnel, but I think I read the top of the torsion bar crossmember/brace, needs to be clearanced. I couldn't find the details on that. I thought they machined the TKO so you don't have to do that, but this new design requires it? That doesn't sound right.

But then all the hidden costs start to mount up , driveshaft, clutch, TO bearing, pilot bearing , crossmember , mount, shifter handle, not sure if it will work with your stock bellhousing. Most of these conversions need everything but a new flywheel. You could easily be into this "bolt in" transmission for $4000 if you are frugal and get some good deals on parts.
So yeah $2800 sounds like a good deal but be prepared for the hidden costs.
