A Jerico is around $2800 brand new with gears of your choice, ready to race. Is that too much? If so, let's talk about an auto trans for dedicated S/SS use with a convertor or two (or three or four..)

Cool on the press release, but no, I could get 1500 out of the Viper tranny on Ebay and put that twoard a new trans if we go that route.

Put lipstick on a pig.........

I know guys are modifying them to handle 1500+ hp, but youre right thats not hard lauch, and with that it would probably become "lunch" it was curiosity well....because I dont have a use for it...lol

No its a hell of a lot cheaper a grand a converter 4-5k for a "right" trans with all the trick stuff.....
