The TREMEC T-5 originally came as OE equipment in Foxbody Mustangs and was a popular overdrive transmission for years in many swap applications. When TREMEC introduced it to the aftermarket, it became an easy choice for early Mustangs with moderate power levels.

Wharton Automotive Group President Paul Lee has announced the acquisition of the small-diameter racing clutch and drivetrain component line of PowerTrain Technology (PTT) of Algonquin, Illinois. Wharton Automotive Group now consists of McLeod Racing, FTI Competition Converters & Transmissions, Silver Sport Transmissions, and PPT.

The TREMEC TKX has a rounded case and is streamlined to fit inside tight transmission tunnels with no cutting in most applications.

Since the birth of the automobile, manufacturers have been trying to make cars less user-involved and more reliant on the latest technology.

With gasoline costs uncomfortably high, many enthusiasts have started thinking twice before trekking to a car show an extended distance from their home.

"Silver Sport Transmissions new conversion kits for GM street rod and Truck includes  a perfect fit kit for GM street rods and trucks using Tremec’s TKO 5-speed transmission as the foundation for the kit. Tremec’s T56 Magnum 6-speed transmission is also offered in another kit which guarantees multiple shift locations without having to do any weird fabrication."

“I call it my gentleman cruiser because nobody knows what’s under there,” Mattingly says, explaining why he went with the smaller exhaust to reduce the noise, among other things. “You know, I go down the highway getting 20 to 22 mpg,” he adds.

"In the movie Demolition Man, we get to see a glimpse of the future of customer service when Erwin answers the phone in the police station, and suggests that if the caller prefers an automated response, they should press ‘1’. We laugh at silly situations like this, but deep down the single, most annoying thing about calling customer service is the endless barrage of options and buttons that need to be pressed in our attempt to reach an actual human being."

"When it comes to the Tremec T-56 and TKO 500, Silver Sport makes sure that the shifter not only fits factory consoles or locations, but that the shift feel is a better experience overall for the vehicle owner."
