Along with the TKX transmission, buyers receive a shifter, pilot bearing, hardware, isolator mount, rev lights, speedo cable, speedo gear, driveshaft, and detailed instructions. Of course, it doesn’t have to stop there, SST offers upgraded components as well.
Some background on the Tremec TKX transmission; The folks at Tremec sought to improve upon the prolific TKO design by combining its versatility with durable construction (26-spline input and a 600 lb-ft torque rating) and a streamlined form to create the TKX.
Its compact, round case allows for more room around crossmembers and exhaust systems, eliminating the need to cut sheet metal on most applications, including Corvettes, A-Bodies, 1st and 2nd Gen F-Bodies, Tri-5’s, C-10’s, Nova’s, and many others.
Inside, the synchros have been redesigned with multiple shift cones giving it a shift capability much higher than the TKO at 7,500 RPM. Not only that, but its shifts are much smoother as well.
The TKX also features an electronic speed sensor but still offers the capability of a mechanical speedometer output. Of course, it also comes with a backup light and a neutral safety switch.
So, whether you’re restoring or upgrading, the new TKX offers high-RPM shifting, low-RPM cruising, Reduced NVH (Noise, Vibration, Harshness), increased fuel economy, and extreme durability.
The deal is only available until April 15th and cannot be combined with other offers. To take advantage of this limited-time offer, head to the SST website, request a quote, and use promo code StreetMuscle250.
