No, but I did play the Transbrake Game.

Ordered a C4 Streetfighter from TCI with the transbrake they had for it. A push in modulator for 71 and later cases was listed. The trans they sent me had a screw in so I looked up the number and it was a 70 case. I found a screw in module for a C4 on-line and it turned to be too big for the case.

I wound up going to a local transmission shop and buying a 72 case and paying them to pull all the parts out of the TCI trans and install them in the 72 case. The gasket they put in had a razor thin cut in it and it blew out the minute I turned the engine over. It's fine now but what an effort!

How about the flex plate shield that wouldn't fit the trans tunnel and had to be replaced with an SFI bell housing at 3X the price?
