Wow, it's about time. Can't wait to try one.
Thanks Dan!
Just ordered my TKX and PerfectFit kit for my NOM C2 Corvette today. Jeff was a great help on the phone with making sure I got the correct clutch kit, and the correct OD ratio for my application. Highly recommend SilverSport Transmissions. Really looking forward to being able to cruise rt66 at 75+ this year!
Thank you! -Jeff
I need 4 of them for my Chevelle , Nova , Camaro

hi JEFF, you were my sales rep when I ordered an SS700 from KEISLER. Unfortunately, never received it due to you know what happened.
I am looking to get this transmission for my 85 c4 corvette and am in the market. Just received the quote. Thanks!
Thats a nice transmission and really a step to the future for all of us who love old cars but want a 5 speed. Would be interested in 2 of them but one needs to be faceplated please.
Give us a call and discuss your options. 888-609-0070

Hey Jeff, i got a TKX from you guys and have just (1) question....
What is "TREMEC'S" policy as it pertains to "WARRANTY" with aftermarket hydraulic throw out bearings and input shaft retainer plates that many said HYD throwout bearing MFG's require to run their Hyd throw-out setups?!?....
I went with a Ram 78131, seems like it will works sans their input retainer but what is Tremec's policy on warranty? Will swapping it "VOID" the warranty of the transmission?
Thanks! Look forward to installing in my ZZ430 EFI powered Formula.
I want one.
Will the shifter locations work in a 79 ford pickup with a bench seat and bolted to a 351 cleveland , thanks
Yes, it will!
Is Tremec just building the LGT 700 now?
I looked on your website and couldnt find that bearing. Where do i get that bearing and retainer? is the input shaft same as t56 for GM?
Hi, Nodda. Please give us a call, ask for Shane. 888-609-0070
I have a 64 four-speed Corvette and wondered if this will fit it without having to cut the floor or chassis?
We have PerfectFit Kits for both the TKO and the TKX for the 1964 Corvette and they will both fit without cutting the floor or chassis. You can call us to find out more if you like, 888-609-0070.
Would this transmissions work on my 89 F150 4 x 4 it already has a five speed but I would like to upgrade

I am in the process of purchasing the Tremec TKX Manual Transmission for my Ford Mustang 1992 LX with an LS swap Engine . there are two types of TKX Transmissions available. I want to make sure I choose the right that fit the LS Engine . Additionally, I have seen that there is an LS bellhousing option as well as Clutch LS kit .Could you please advise me on which specific type I should purchase for my vehicle?
Ford or GM ?

What's the tire size or height?

@@yotaismygame If you plan on doing lots of highway driving, TCET17805 with 2.87, 1.89, 1.28, 1.00, 0.68 would be the best. If you have other plans, the .81 5th gear would be preferred.
Would this transmission be ideal for my 03 GT swap ? Currently running a TR 3650
Yes, we have a kit for your application. Call 888-609-0070 for a quote.
I received a small packet of white grease with my thx what is this used for and do I oil the splines.
You can use a small amount on the input shaft splines and then use the rest to lube the speedo cable. We have a video on that here: czcams.com/video/1aiZMDU41YE/video.html
What parts needed to make this with work chevy 350. Clutch, pressure plate - they make fingers that don't stick out some much, flywheel. 2 peace main, What's the specs on the bearing fully close. I need to lose 0.44 spacing. To use a hydraulic bearing.
Hi @jagco2594. Please call our tech department at 888-609-0070. They can help you figure out what you'll need and the measurements.
Hello I was told I would be able to use Carquest Multi Vehicle ATF in the new TKX.
Yes, you can.
Have you fitted one to a 72 chev nova big block without tunnel modification
Some of our customers have.
WIll they fit in a B body Mopar? if so how much cutting?
Hi Erik, Jeff covers this in a video he posted to Facebook today, check it out then give us a call if you have more questions - fb.watch/1B6YpX8R_I/
I sold my TKO 500 a few years ago because the thing wouldn’t shift past 6k. I went with the Astro A5 and haven’t looked back since. What’s the dimensions on this for a Fox body? Because a TKO 500 required a little massaging of the tunnel.
The dimensions of the case height and width are similar to the T-5, it's 24" long.
@@SilverSportTransmissions so will this work with the stifflers crossmember and QuickTime bell housing I currently have? I was asking about the dimensions because I just got a new driveshaft and was wondering if I could just change the slip yoke to 31 spline instead of having to get a new driveshaft.
@@chadj8349 TKO/TKX are .340” shorter than T5 so you should be able to use the existing driveshaft depending on how much stick out you have right now. If it borders on being somewhat short, it may not work. If you’re using a Stifflers TCB-M09, it will work.
Where do I find info on the "STE" Hydraulic Throwout Bearing - your website is no help.

Will this be able to fit on my 3.8 series 2 Camaro?
No, it won't work with that engine.
this transmission match with a muncie m21 bellhousing without adapters?
Yes, it will.
@@SilverSportTransmissions thank you!
what a 79 ford pickup two wheel drive is it a tkx or the TREMEC TR-4050
For a 2WD Ford Pickup, we have the choice of a TREMEC TKX 5-Speed or a TREMEC Magnum 6-Speed. The TR-4050 is 4WD only.
@@SilverSportTransmissions The 5 speed will bolt up to a 351 cleveland
Just saw this on your facebook. I don't know why anyone would consider a 4 speed(muncie) with thit out.
🤷♂️
Would this fit a 1989 corvette?
No, it will not.
Corvette... Hopefully that includes C4... What about the torque arm?
Yes, we do have kits for the C4. We have a torque arm adapter.
@@SilverSportTransmissions THEN I'M BUYING ONE!!!! WOOOOOT!!!!
@@drm9397 Great! We look forward to hearing from you!
What's the price going to be on this?
$2795.00
Would I be able to throw this on 95 5.7 350 with 4x4
The TKX is 2wd only. You would need the TR-4050 which can be found on www.shiftsst.com
Silly Me didn't think that GM used different Transmissions between Chevelles and Camaros..
I have a 1979 F Body that came with a Borg Watner T-10 I put a Doug Nash 5 speed in it many years ago no Overdrive and still have the stock 3.73 rear gear in it .. You said this Trans bolts in place of a Muncie ..
The TKX shares the common bolt pattern with Muncie, Saginaw, T10, Super T10, Doug Nash, Richmond Gear, TREMEC TKO, Legend LGT700 and more.
@@SilverSportTransmissions I owuld think so but I was not sure.. I plan an LS engine in the future.. but for now still have the Gen I small block .. I would think all GM cars use the same bolt pattern they do on the back of the Block at least..
This Trans would be a huge improvment over My Doug Nash 5 speed which does not shift whell at high RPM's and has no overdrive.. Plus I could still use my present manual clutch .. Where as the T-56 is hydraulic only clutch is .. what I gather so far..
@@mikeskidmore6754 We're happy to discuss your options whenever you're ready. 888-609-0070
Does that transmission have a 232 first gear?
It comes with a 2.87 or a 3.27 first gear. You can see all the gear ratio information here: shiftsst.com/tremec-transmissions#TKX
@@SilverSportTransmissions ok
Nice manual transmission for road racing but not for drag racing, but I'd go with a Jericho for road racing
Shifter position and the outside of the case shifter linkage makes em a pain to fit.
@@CP110 true
what does this weigh?
96 lbs. dry
@@SilverSportTransmissions holy hell!!! That’s barely anything!
What is the weight?
99 lbs dry
@@SilverSportTransmissions Thats what I like to hear! Thank you for the fast response.
@@racereadymotorsport7772 Thanks for your interest! It's a great transmission.
What do they cost ? 🤷♂️
$2795 for a stock transmission.
