Planetary Transmissions
Are there any websites for planetary transmissions such as a Lenco or a Jeffco? I am also just curious if anyone has used one in a third gen. ( I am, so any tips would be nice.) TIA.

i think the cost and effort wouldn't be worth it for the street and most racing applications. sorry i don't know any web sites.

Those are strictly racing transmissions, not for the street at all. You'd have to do a whole bunch of fab work to get one in there. I haven't noticed anybody on this site talking about using one. Here's a site run by some hardcore racers that you might want to look around on, there's usually some for sale in the classifieds.

Thank you for the considerations guys.
89Camaro- Have you ever seen a slap shifter? or Lightning Rod shifter?
I understand I would likely have to modify the trans tunnel. Lenco and Jeffco both make a street version, but they are still not the bast for the street, starting at $4500.
Thanks for the website, I will check it out. The only issue I have is not being able to downshift. I'm actually leaning toward a borg-warner 6 speed and McLeod dual disc. I'm just not sure if it can hold the power or not.
I was looking into Lenco, and I saw that their 6 speed was available with as steep as a 7.56 1st gear!!!!! All the way up to a 3.08 for third and 1:1 for 6th. Could you imagine how low of a rear ratio you could run with that? Can you say 300 mph in the right car??
