    I do think my gt350 is jealous though. I found some oil spots on the ground
    this morning under her..

    Excellent car. I have two suggestions:

    1. Mods should include subframe connectors and a Steeda Tri AX shifter.

    2. Avoid posting binary data to a non binary newsgroup. It can mess
    things up for people with slow connections, as well as get the
    newsgroup kicked off of servers for violating charter.

    Enjoy!

    Much better feel and construction. Also it has positive stops on it.
    Normally in your tranny, the shift forks stop your shifer when they
    reach the end of their travel. If you shift too hard, you could
    possibly bend a shift fork. The Tri Ax (and other comparable products)
    prevent this from happening as well. The main advantage is the shift
    feel.

    I read somewhere that the new Tremec transmission has internal stops to
    prevent shift fork damage....

    I'm not sure, but that's just what I've heard.

    Might wanna do some checking. I'd heard that if you had one to just take
    the stop bolts out of the shifter and just use it to shorten throws and hit
    third gear better.

    In any event, I liked my Tri-Ax so much on my '97 Cobra (took it off of
    another car to put it on within three days of owning it), I bought another
    one for the '88 LX that I bought not so long ago with 72k original miles on
    it. Definately a must-have mod to improve the feel of the car and the ease
    of which you hit 2nd and 3rd...

    It's my understanding that Tremec wants you to remove the shift stops on
    aftermarket shifters. They seem to think that they cause more harm than
    good, in that they can create an under-shift condition which can cause the
    transmission to jump out of gear. All V8 Mustangs since 2001 use the TR3650
    trans, so if you get the shifter, remove the stops.
