Re: pros and cons on a tko 600
trans has a notchy shift, but its a very positive feel, no guessing if you are in gear, and no sloppy shifts. Its just fine IMO.
size, its a little tall for the tunnel, it fits, but sits at a decent angle downard towards the rear of the car. I just finished "fixing" this issue, havent driven it since, still waiting on carpet.
streetability, no problem at all. I would have no problem DD's a car with the trans.
in reality though, unless you get a screaming deal on a second hand one, which are hard to find, a lt1 style t56 would be cheaper.
