But why bother ?
There was a guy at the Mopar Nationals with Keisler or something that was
selling complete 5-Speed kits for the R/T. $2500 got you a Tremec 5-Speed,
bellhousing, drive-shaft, and all needed parts. Terry DeLong was drooling
over it and I imagine from his response to the kit, he will be the first to
have one in his R/T.
I will try and find the guy's card I got at the Nats.
