I think they only with with Super T-10 4-speeds and T5 5-speeds...

They also do pro-shift conversions on normal T5s which is not a dog gear conversion, it's just modification of the standard synchro gears and sliders, so technically it's not as strong. They used to charge about $470 to do this on 2nd, 3rd, and 4th gears on T5s.

I'm thinking that my website may have been the source of the hearsay... but I couldn't get ahold of them. I eventually called information and got the number for liberty. I spoke with (I think it was Dave) for about a half hour. They do put dogs in your transmission, and it runs about $300... but this isn't what you think it is... its just simply replacing the synchros with dog engagements. It does not strenghten your transmission. You must double clutch when down shifting.... but it makes it very easy to upshift. I spoke with them about fabricating straight cut gears to use with their dog engagement system... expensive.... Just as much as buying a Geforce tranny.

So, yes, they do put dogs in your tranny for cheap.
No, this is not what most people think when they hear this.

On a side note... they make a bellhousing adapter that will let you use a lakewood tranny on your 13b... still more expensive than a nice Geforce 5 speed H-gate with clutch assist....
