ok guys so found a tim king tranny, all the goodies. Trans was built in 2012, never installed. Guy has a good price on it and all that. I am making close to 300 to the wheels with my set up. Guy selling the tranny said it will handel 450whp. Has the 7/8 chaing, 3.29 gears, 300 input shaft, ect ect. I talked to one person with a overall no said these things are junk. He said go with TEP and Dave, and I have heard nothing but great things! I do trust his judgement, and know Dave builds great trannys. I guess my question, for the price it is very hard to pass up, and from what I read I have to hope its actually built correctly with parts that says he has in it. I just dont want to buy a giant paper weight with the hopes im getting a steal on the price lol! So does anyone have any experince with a TK tranny? if so would love to hear about it! Good or bad! thanks
 


He used to make em good. Probably has those parts in there. Probably also rebuilt with with various trans cores with high mileage
too many probablys. I got burned and I drove to see him build em etc.
 
I wouldn't pay more than junkyard price for a Tim King tranny. It probable will work, but may or may not have the actual high performance parts in it.
