Tremec TKO 600?

Anyone have experience with this trans? Seems to be popular with the Mustang/Camaro crowd. Looks appealing as a street-strip trans based on price. Talked with the Liberty guys and they felt building a bellhousing for the rotary would be fairly easy. The dimensions are fairly close to the FD box, with the exception of the shifter being 6" or so forward of the stock location. With the idea that this would be used in an SA/FB chassis, that would most likely be advantageous for myself. For those looking to push the engine back in the chassis, the shifter location may be a good thing.

Thoughts?

My worry would be high rpm shifts.

I have a TKO600 for my 4 rotor. It runs good at high rpm's but i would recomend getting all the mods they have for the trans. Il be running mine at 9500 rpm once i get the new chassi finished. It shifted great at 8500 rpm. No problems at all.
