Default Where To Buy A Tko 600

Do any of you guys have an avenue to get a TKO kit for a 69 camaro 2sp original. Going to run LS2 or LS3.

Thanks

Kevin

Classic chevy 5 speed is the best period. Jim and Todd are on their game.

Classic Chevy 5 Speed....or 'Classic Motorsports Group' as they're called now.

make sure you ask about the options !! shifter, gear ratio's, ect & try not to end up with an extra flywheel.

Default Tko 600

Actually, I agee with the others Classic Chevy 5 Speed has good tech support. Although, I opted to do my own tranny shopping from Jegs and bought my own clutch, pressure plate and flywheel kit directly from Ram. CC 5 Speeds base kit had stock parts such as bellhousing and cluth fork for a damn near price of stronger aftermarket parts. Therefore, to upgrade to more stronger parts the price became larger. That's when I opted to do my own shopping and saved myself nearly $300 which went towards my install. No matter where you get your parts/kit...do the swap. My Chevelle is so much more fun to drive. It's well worth it.

Thanks for the input guys. I think I am going to deal with Frank at Prodigy he said he could get me a T56 for my 69 camaro with a kit that allows me not to cut the trans tunnel for less then the CC5sp TKO 600 kit! Better Trans for LS motor and less money! I hope I am not missing anything.

Thanks

Kevin

i got my tko 600 from frank also for an awesome deal. some of his suppliers sucked, but he provided EXCELLENT customer service!!!

there were two things that steered me away from the 6 sp; the fact that the 600 can take more power, and i dont think i would ever use 6th gear.

i havent driven it yet, but i dont see how anything more than my ~.82 will be needed with the tall tire im running.
