Default K to FWD GM transmission

Why aren't more K series going to automatics it would be cheaper than spending all that money on those dog cut gears just to still miss gears and fight to built boost. There blessed to spend clockwise lol.

Nobody has developed anything great for it yet in terms of kits, plus banging gears is more fun lol

I could be wrong, and don't quote me here, but i think you may be mistaken on that Ryan. I'm almost sure there is or was a car with exactly this setup in it already. I'll do some digging and find out some more info

The K transmissions really aren't as bad as they were 4-5 Years ago. . . Just dont drive like an A-hole and you wont break them. . .

This building boost thing you are talking about , whats that? haha

I'm sure there are, it's a no brainer. But nothing is public or I know lots more people would have probably jumped on board.

I was going to go that route originally with my car, then I realized it was going to be even more work/money lol
