Description
THE ALL-NEW MDL SHIFT POSITION MODIFIED TREMEC TKX 5-SPEED
FOR GM A-BODY 1963-1967 MANUAL SHIFTER POSITION
What do we do to the TKX:
The shifter is a close-ratio custom-made piece that is now an integral part of the transmission.
We achieve this by carefully machining, updating, and integrating new pieces to this HOT NEW must-have transmission
This is not available through TREMEC.
Many hours of R&D were put forth to provide this to you our customer.
No upgraded TKX leaves here unless it’s right.
