Default Pro-shifted/faceplated users inside

Due to no longer having mine, I was wondering if anyone had video of their t-56 that has been pro-shifted or faceplated. I am tring to show the fact that t-56 aren't slow on the 1/4 like most die-hard auto user tend to believe.

Thank You!

I have a face plated trans. I went 10.22 two weeks ago in the heat and just won the north vs south shootout yesterday with a 10.32@132mph. Shoot me your email address and I can send any video you like.

Thanks

Congrats Joe!!!

Any update on the durability of the Face-plated trans in your car? I know I am a little on the fence as to a well built stock style trans from you, or the face plated trans(george wants me to run the face plate trans in car of course, haha)

I just wanna know how often its gonna need to be torn apart, and gone through.

Faceplated is kinda like pro-shifted, IMO a bit better. It is a little more durable, a little less mantaining involved. Same basic point. Face-plated could also be used on the street but not to be recomended.
