Also, of great interest, the price on these shifters actually wenr DOWN from what they were when offered by Mcloed.

The TKO 600s have been experiancing shifter rail bind when parked in gear, ussually on hills, or when the handle is jammed while parked. It appears the stock shifter is over engaging. I have some of the shifters with stops coming in hoping this will solve the locking up issue in the TKO 600. We are installing these shifters on 3 of our personal cars with TKOs, Project Prodigy, Project EmptyNest, and Michaels Monte this week as test. Project Prodigy's shifter has jammed 3 times, and it is a HUGE PIA to R and R that trans. I have high hopes this shifter will cure that problem.

We also look forward to the smoother faster shifting.

There is not a lot of information or a website up yet, and we got some pre release product.
