TREMEC TKX 5-Speed, TREMEC Magnum 6-Speed, and A41 4L60E Automatics for GM B-Body

Silver Sport Transmissions has the best-engineered kits to modernize the powertrain of your 1958-1964 GM B body. Our PerfectFit™ Kits bring the shifter handle to the factory-correct position for the best possible fit and our billet shifter tower provides short, crisp shifts.

Car shows, close friends, and good times are all within easy reach when you choose a TREMEC TKX 5-speed, T56 Magnum 6-speed, or Silver Sport Transmissions A41 4-speed automatic overdrive from SST!

The TREMEC TKX 5-Speed is the newest and most compact transmission from TREMEC.  Capable of handling up to 600 lb-ft torque and 7,500 rpm shifts, the TKX is strong enough to handle most street applications. Our TKXs have been modified to give you a factory-correct shifter position so your car will retain the factory look.  They also come with a crossmember to keep your driveline angles in spec. Find out why people call this powertrain upgrade the best improvement they've made to their car! 

The TREMEC Magnum 6-speed is quickly gaining in popularity as more and more people opt for larger engines. The 6-speed has two overdriven gears and can handle up to 700 lb-ft torque and 7,800 rpm shifts. Although it's certainly capable of handling the abuse of the track, it's also great for everyday use.  Our short throw shifter tower turns a great transmission into one of the best out there and our PerfectFit™ kit will let you keep a factory look with modern performance.

Silver Sport Transmissions A41 4-Speed Automatic is based on the GM 4L60E transmission and comes in three performance stages.  It can handle anywhere from 450 to 650 lb-ft torque.  It's an excellent alternative to replace the original automatic and with the overdrive, it is an impressive upgrade. Switch from a gas-saving economy mode to performance mode with a flip of a switch or go from performance to high performance, you set the custom shift points!
