I want to see this happen. I think it would be awesome.

Anyone know the ratios of the gears in each box?

Is it possible to rebuild our slush box with upgraded clutches combined with a TCU tune? Think old school putting a shift kit into a muscle car to improve shift times. Is there even a company that makes upgraded clutches for our transmission?

You can do anything with enough money. You can get custom parts made but why?? Just retrofit the new MCT in and call it a day.

I had mine rebuilt with the double friction clutches from the 65s along with some tweaks to the drum to allow more of them. This combined with some valve body modifications and a Trans tune from Weistec has hade for a beautifully shifting trans, even with the 3000 stall. It should up to the power as well, only time will tell!
