I was going to get one for my Challenger as it's resto, rebuild it with this TCI kit, anyone used it before? If so any good?
It comes with everything

It will cost me $187-USD

I got a re-build kit from them the last time I did mine. Some of the parts were better than the B&M kits.

However!
The small ring seals for the input shaft that were supplied were too small and would have caused a big loss of pressure had I not spotted it. I wrote to them to complain and never got a response. Duncan Watts is our UK Mopar trans man and he was good enough to send me some spares.

I suggest you add this book to your shopping list at Amazon.com

I found it very helpful indeed.

Good idea Dave I will look into this, I already have a R/RB Engine book and the resto e-body book so this is to make the set complete.

Don't forget we have a transmission expert here on the board too in the shape of "transman". I am sure he will answer any questions you may have.

Yip I recieved a PM from him he sounds on-to-it.

I was basically just seeing what you guys thought of TCI and the kits they sell, doesn't sound to good if they sent a wrong part and worse they don't answer there emails, maybe it was a one off because I've heard so much about there products etc.
I do have another pro Trans guy Chryco who is going to be helping me with the engine build up.

Still.........6 months before shes able to be cranked over :cry:
