The T-45 can be built to take a lot more abuse than when it was stock. The first problem with the T-45 BW is that the tolerances are very sloppy. The second problem is a combination of 2nd gear being too heavy and the syncros and blocker rings not being stout enough to speed that heavy 2nd gear up when slamming gears. The transmission shop that does all our AOD and gear work could make the fixes for about $1100 with the tranny out of the car. At that price range, it would probably be better to just go with the 3550. Also in the new FF&MM they do a T-56 swap into a Cobra
