If i were willing and sent you a trans, would you guys be willing to make a setup to work for me? I dont mind banging out the tunnel a bit...especially when youre talking about 3-4k in savings. Thats enough to for me to order a 8.8 rear kit also, and have a bullet proof setup, for the price of just this trans setup.
Had many people ask about it. This barely fit in the tunnel. Im sure you would have to modify the tunnel for that trans.

Kit Looks great!! Just out of curiousity...have you guys ever considered doing a t56 setup kit? The trans are WAY cheaper, and could run the price down alot.

I did a little research on the T56 swap and those trans don't like shifting above 8000 rpm from what a reputable shop mentioned.

Same thing I was looking into. The guys who run those, and shift high for domestics are only shifting 7-8k, and those were worked. Anything above that and they just don't handle it as well.
Not alot of options for us. My friend just got his gears faceplated for 1500 on his 600+ 3 rotor car, and even though he says it's tougher on the street, he is loving it on the track.
Something I might think about.

This is pretty cool, I would love to pull the trigger but the wife would literally kick me out of the house permanently 
(doesnt mean I am not thinking about it). It's one thing to have 600RWHP, it's another to be able to use it the way God intended 
So just to clarify, if one was to go through with this, besides labor what else would be needed?
-R200 Diff kit
-1000 Axles
And what else?
