Tremec TKX GM 5-Speed Performance Transmission β 3.27 First Gear / .72 Overdrive β TCET18083
Compact high-strength manual transmission engineered for aggressive street performance, road race builds, and pro-touring applications.
The Tremec TKX platform is designed specifically for aftermarket performance vehicles requiring high torque capacity, elevated RPM shift capability, and improved transmission tunnel clearance.
This ratio configuration features a deeper 3.27 first gear for strong acceleration and a .72 overdrive suited for performance-focused cruising, making it well suited for vehicles prioritizing launch performance and close-ratio driving feel.
Transmission Configuration
