Default anyone put a lenco in an F-body yet?

i'm so sick of buying $2500 A4's every 6 months. i've had 5 go out on me now. i'm just gonna get a lenco. has anybody done this yet? the car is going to be a track car with minimal street usage. how did this setup work for you? thanks

why a lenco? kinda over rated and antique in my opinion. a Liberty would be more of a full on drag race trans if that is what you're looking for. i've seen a couple Liberty fbodies (mine included in due time)

no A4 is bullet proof but a $2500 one should atleast come with some kind of warranty for replacement.

A Rossler with all the goodies is (or was) more than $2500.

If you can live without OD, a good TH400 set-up is affordable and takes a lot of abuse.

are you assuming a lenco manual transmision is even close to being street friendly? i am hardcore and dont find it close. you enjoy big dollar clutches that need to be pulled often?

rossler 400 vmvb and brake are 1300.
