Do we know if he is still building them? Or has he given up on the project.

Jamie, doesn't build them Garrett-Fuss Inc does that. Jamie just sold their product. As previously stated John Huff also sells them.

Sorry my bad I didn't know. So do the people that built them still make them or did they give up?

No worries... just some info passed along. AFAIK they are still making them.... I haven't been in contact with Seth Garrett since I sold mine which has been a couple years ago. John Huff seems to be getting them, so they have to be making them. shruggy

The last time I talked to John Huff he said the owners of the company were aging and the transmissions were coming slowly. He is trying to buy the company, from what I understand.

Just stumbled on this......
No skin in the game, don't need a trans, but has this "New Product" really been going on for 15yrs?

..........well Passon never built any of them . They were made by GFS . Seem like the whole project has stalled at this time . The web site talks about a GM version of the A855 but probably never happened ???

I did read the Passon 5-speed story in the latest Mopar Collector's Guide...
I don't have any further comments but will say the following:
Over the last 10 years I have bought (3) A-833s from Passon, and Jamie
was very professional and delivered a high quality product. And in the future
if I need any A-833 or related drive-train parts I will not hesitate to buy from Passon.
Also note I have bought some things from Wayne/Dan @ Brewers, as both Passon and Brewers
are in my personal opinion class-operations supporting our legacy Mopars..

Just my $0.02... wink

Seems like the company GFS may have gone out of business as the web page for the 855 5spd seems to have been taken down....???? The only real hope for this project is if they could sell the design to a bigger company that could build it but cost cutting and cheaper quality parts .......Im thinking this project is dead.
