I’ve been told she does not have the money to buy the material to make the shields and they are to be prepaid and hopefully you will get one I talked to her 10 wks ago and she told me they were 4 wks out and wanted a CC number I said I’ll call back it’s been 10 wks I called back today and was told it would be 4 wks I said you told me that 10 wks ago so you would have used my money for the last 10 wks and still no shield that’s a [censored] way of doing business to bad know one else builds a carbon shield

I ended up buying a blanket after waiting a long time back in the early 2000s for a CSR shield, I ended up loving the blanket and sold the shield after getting it six months later
i had a tranny temp gauge and never saw over 210 F on the tranny temps on the street or at the track racing it with a custom built 10 inch drag race street and strip converter from Continental: boogie:

I ordered and paid for a big block 727 shield in July of 2021 and still have not received the shield. Last week I called CSR and Christine told me they shipped it to my PO Box in December ... [censored] ...who ships large large packages to a PO Box. Now she said they are waiting for the return and will ship it correctly to my address. Still waiting.

I already missed last race season waiting for parts and this year doesn't look good either. I love my mopar...but my friend told me if you race mopar parts will be expensive and hard to find. He was right. Ordered an engine in June 2021... still waiting for parts to build the engine. Sucks.

Yeah, she wanted me to pre-pay also , I said no thanks and bought ALUMINUM one from TCI .. my tunnel is large so no worry about fit

the thing about the aluminum shields is the certification.
how does that thing go "bad" after 5 [?] years unless the transmission blows up, deforming it, or it is cut up into chunks.
just as bad as the seat belt fiasco in my opinion. [ya know, grumpy old guy muttering in his oatmeal...... ]

I just wanted some level of protection, Not to worried about the cert baloney

Just ordered one she said 6-8 wks we will see she did not ask for payment I was shocked

Then put a steel drum in it and forget the shield.

Steel or aluminum with a steel liner

They do already

do you understand what is meant by a level of security?

Do steel drums explode?

I order and paid super shield at 12/15/2021 hope get it for summer

Tunnel better be huge cause the tci shield is pretty much made for dragsters. No way that's fitting in a basic tunnel. Maybe someone can share their success with it, but one look at it and mine went back.

Anything is possible , just take several safety measures that you can

prepared for that

Speaking from experience .. Most stock floors will not clear the CSR shield either .. i've owned two cars that I put them on , my current 67 has one

Stock 727 drums definitely have that capability….. smaller mass of the 904, haven’t heard of it happening.
…..and we’re not talking huge hp deals either.

Agreed, had to bash my 67 to get mine in as well, and that is basically a direct overlay design.

Summit has a similar eta.
