Excellent work with the transmission man. Did you end up using the ACT TOB or OEM TOB? Doing this all at once is the right way to really enjoy the fruit of your build. Not like what I did, transmission rebuild, then 1 year later change clutch, then 5 years later build engine.....then have to rebuild trans again lmao.

Thanks and I def hear that lol , I used the act TOB that came with the kit, hope it works ok for me. I don’t drive to hard and don’t ever launch so I think it will be cool. But may be tempting now since it’s built for it lol

I would re-think the ACT TOB. Take a look at this thread. Issue starts on post #196. Basically is just stick with OEM TOB.

Well I guess I’ll pull the trans off now while it’s easy to do and get a Oem TOB , I’ve been reading nothing but garbage about them. Ugh it’s only like 10 bolts lol
